Preserve your precious childhood memories!
How does it work?
Once you enroll in a course, you’ll get a confirmation text followed by weekly lessons sent straight to your phone. Each lesson includes:
a specific memory prompt
a writing assignment (that’s easily adaptable based on your skill and preferences)
tips for getting both your memories and your words flowing
You’ll also get lots of inspiration & bonus resources to download, which will be helpful in all your future life story writing.
Each course lasts 8 weeks.
Why now?
Because now is always the right time to begin telling your story!
Did your kids or another loved one invite you to take this course? Consider it an honor; they care about you and want to know about what made you who you are!
Or did you think it might be fun? Well, it will—but it will be meaningful, too.
Don’t wait until your memories start to fade or until a time you feel less busy—give yourself permission to make the time!
Why text messages?
A text is immediate, and it won’t get lost in your overflowing email in-box. You’re more inclined to not ignore it.
The format challenged me as your course creator, too—to be concise with my tips, and to break things down into bite-size chunks.
Oh, and studies from Stanford & Penn State have shown that texts are amongst the most effective ways to learn and retain information.
If you’re enrolling from outside the U.S., you have the option to choose WhatsApp for delivery as well.
Because your stories matter—and because they are a gift to the next generation.
currently offering two courses: childhood memories & food memories
At just $15 for each 8-week mini-course, pretty much anyone can take advantage of this learning opportunity.
There’s no subscription fee or annual membership required (unlike other weekly family history Q&A prompts we know of!). And since courses are broken into themes, you only need pay for those topics that interest you.
You choose what time of day you would like to receive your weekly lessons. You choose which theme you would like to explore.
You may write in a journal or type on your computer.
And you have a whole week to ruminate on your memory prompts & write your stories. Enough time to let the details bubble up, to call a sibling or parent to talk about the past, or to search for an old family photo album with pictures to help jog your thoughts—but not so much time that you don’t get to it at all. Because next week, another memory prompt and writing exercise is coming!
With concise, RELEVANT writing tips from a professional, you will feel supported on your journey of capturing your stories.
Our goal: To help you write stories that are engaging and enlightening—that will entertain your ancestors with anecdotes, sure, but that go further by delving into life lessons, values, and the journey to becoming you!
Write about your childhood memories every week!
