Welcome Fellow Writers!
We're here to Join you on your Story-Writing Journey.
Join us as we accumulate more stories for our NEXT BOOK. Yes, we published our first book last year and now we are in the process of gathering stories for the next one. The book is available in two versions, one full color and one black-and-white on BLURB.COM. There are chapters of stories on topics such as: family stories, travel stories, transition stories, holiday stories and more. When you start writing your stories here and adding them to our Story Collection, your stories become eligible to be included in our next book. Below you will find out more about TellOurLifeStories.com and how writers like us are getting together to create something new.
Hello!
Let me ask you some questions and tell you a little more about TellOurLifeStories.com,
Do you have an interest in telling the stories of your life, but
feel overwhelmed by the prospect? |
|
|
Do your friends or children tell you that you should write some
of your stories down? |
|
|
Do you think about how the stories of your family will be lost if
someone doesn't record them? |
|
|
As your older relatives and your parents pass from this life,
are you struck by all the questions that lie forgotten because no one
asked them and no one wrote down their stories and now they are no
longer alive to tell them? |
|
|
Or do you have a reunion group or church or
community group with stories to tell? |
If you are like most writers, you have great intentions but it is difficult to motivate yourself for the challenge of writing your life stories and those of your family.
You are in good company! There are lots of people who feel the same way that you do.
Hello, my name is Margaret and I started TellOurLifeStories.com for the people just like us who want to tell those stories so that they remain alive.

As a young widow, I renewed my faith
in the story-writing process. I am interested in the stories of
transition and renewal through the unexpected twists and turns of life
and the companionship of writing and sharing these stories with others.

In addition, like you, I realize that
when the uncles and aunts are gone, there is no one to ask.
The stories of these ancestors touched countless lives. Their stories
empower the family with a bond of continuity. See a
story from the Collection. |
|
|
And I wanted a place where a community could come and share
their stories, such as a reunion or church group. Click to see how
to share with
community on TellOurLifeStories. |

TellOurLifeStories.com is a writers
group in your own home, a place for companionship, ideas and encouragement. |
