FAQs
What's the difference between a biography, autobiography, and memoir?
A biography is typically written by someone else about your life (third-person). An autobiography is your life story told in your own voice (first-person). A memoir focuses on specific themes, periods, or aspects of your life rather than comprehensive chronological coverage. We can write in any of these styles based on your preference.
How many interview sessions will be needed?
This varies by project scope. A focused 25,000-word biography might require 3-5 sessions, while a comprehensive 80,000-word life story might need 10-15 sessions. We’ll estimate based on your story’s complexity during initial consultation.
What if I have trouble remembering details or dates?
This is very common. Our skilled interviewers ask questions that trigger memories, and we work with family members who can help fill gaps. We also conduct research to verify dates and historical context. The goal is capturing the emotional truth of experiences, not just facts.
Can family members contribute to the biography?
Absolutely. We often interview family members, colleagues, or friends to add different perspectives and fill in details. This creates a richer, more complete portrait.
What happens to recordings and materials after the project?
All interview recordings, documents, and materials are returned to you or securely destroyed per your preference. Nothing is retained or shared without your explicit permission.
Will sensitive or private information be included?
You maintain complete control over content. We present all material for your approval, and you decide what’s included or omitted. Many biographies address difficult topics while maintaining appropriate privacy boundaries.
Can the biography be published or is it just for family?
Either option works. Some clients create biographies exclusively for family circulation, while others pursue traditional or self-publishing. We format manuscripts appropriately for your intended use and can provide publishing guidance.
What if the biography subject has passed away?
We can still create meaningful biographies based on interviews with family members, friends, and colleagues, combined with letters, diaries, photos, and other documentation. These posthumous biographies become treasured family documents.
