Rose, can help.Your Words, Your Life Story: A Journal for Sharing Memories by J.Q.

Silly questions that have nothing to do with your life are not in the book. Instead, the guide prompts you to remember details to develop a rich tapestry to share in single vignettes or in a collection. Take the opportunity to tell the familiar stories you have told around the family table, then organize and keep them just for your family and/or publish them.
Your Words, Your Life Story will help ignite and share your memories. You won't be alone on your journey down memory lane. Receive support through the private Facebook group, TellingYour Life Story and Memoir Circle. You're invited to join in to share stories, resources, tips, experiences and memories.
Preserving the experiences of the past for future generations is important. As they peruse the stories, they will wonder how you lived without a TV, a computer or microwave. The story of your life, the struggles, the joys, the accomplishments will be what the next generations understand. Your account will be a guide to help them through their own lives.
Start now to put together the vignettes that make up your life story and create a treasured family keepsake.
The workshops presented by J.Q. Rose have inspired students to tell their stories and realize how rich and full their lives have been.
