Memoirs and Personal Stories

It’s easy enough to tell your aging parent or an older person to share their stories, but it’s an entirely different matter when it comes to how. In what format could those stories and memoirs be shared? 

Here are five products that can be created using memoirs and personal stories:

  1. Memoir Book: Compile personal stories and memories into a book format, either in print or digital form, to share with family, friends, or a wider audience.

  2. Audio Memoir: Record personal stories and memories as an audiobook, allowing listeners to hear the stories in the author’s own voice.

  3. Documentary Film: Create a documentary film based on personal stories and experiences, combining interviews, archival footage, and reenactments to bring the memoir to life visually.

  4. Personal Storytelling Workshops: Develop workshops or online courses where individuals can learn how to craft and share their own personal stories, drawing inspiration from the author’s memoirs.

  5. Legacy Journal: Design a guided journal or workbook that prompts readers to reflect on their own life experiences and write their personal stories, inspired by the author’s memoirs.

These products can help authors share their memoirs and personal stories in various formats, reaching different audiences and preserving their legacy for future generations.

Supporting seniors in a venture such as this not only gives them a new lease on life and a purpose, but a way to earn passive income to help supplement their living expenses. Best of all … it’s a great way to leave a legacy that makes the world a better place.
