Built by our family, for yours.
“The idea for Storyworth came from something simple: I wanted my kids to know my dad, their grandfather, better. I started asking him questions about his life and recording his answers, and was amazed by how much I learned. The more stories he shared, the closer we got, and that’s an experience I wanted everyone to be able to have.”

How long should stories be?
That's up to you! Some questions may spark long stories, while others may only need a few sentences to answer. Just write or say what you remember—even the simplest memories can mean so much.
What if it takes longer than a year to finish?
That’s totally fine! You’ll always have access to write, edit, and order copies of your book, even after your subscription year has ended. Weekly questions are there to provide helpful structure, but this is your story to tell at your pace.
Do you have audio recording options?
Yes! You can tell your stories over a phone call (even on a landline!), and they’ll automatically be transcribed into your memoir. You can edit and add photos just like the ones you answer over email or on your Storyworth account.
What are your questions like?
We have the largest library of curated questions covering everything from childhood and education to parenthood, travel, and hobbies. You can also write your own questions or share a few life details to get personalized questions.
What happens to my stories at the end of the year?
We’re committed to preserving your stories forever. They’ll always be private, owned by you, and available to read, edit, or add to. You can also download a free PDF copy of your memoir anytime.
