Stories In Common

Life Capture - Coming Soon

Recording your life is a daunting task. Instead of trying to write your complete memoirs all at once, capture one story at a time at your own pace. Life Capture helps you tell the story of your life through the people and events that define you:

  • Select Your Defining Stories - Sometimes a defining story is an event, sometimes it is a person. Identify what is most important to your life. Start with a small number of items so you don't feel overwhelmed.

  • Write One Story At a Time - It doesn't matter what order you write your stories. Start with the easiest one and work from there. If you want, we'll send you an occasional reminder of the stories you have yet to complete.

  • Publish Your Stories In Book Form - When you are ready, you can publish your life stories as a book. You can print it and send it to family and friends. Or you can simply send them a web address so they can print it themselves.

Life Capture helps you record your life. Your stories also become part of the Stories In Common Project, an archive of true life stories that define humanity. Stories are attributed to their authors based on their personal preferences — you can be known by your initials (e.g. "A.K.") or by your full name (e.g. "Andrew Kincaid").
