"Leslie made it easy to share my story. She turned our conversations into a thoughtful book that sounds like me. I thoroughly enjoyed the process, and my friends and family are very impressed."

Wally Wallner
“My siblings and I have long wanted to document our mom's life story — some things we knew and many other things we didn’t know. It was truly an amazing experience for all of us to learn about family history and then to capture it in a lovely book for all generations. It is a daunting task but so much easier with Leslie’s expertise and guidance. She did an incredible job interviewing my 95-year-old mother and tying together other information from our extended family; it gives us even more to talk about at our next family reunion.”

Ellen Pensky McGraw
"With Leslie's help, my longtime dream of writing a book came true. Not only was she integral in developing the framework and content of Unraveling Dualities: Finding Peace with Paradox, she guided me through the business of publishing. Her ability to extract the core ideas from me, and manage all the considerations I never knew existed, was critical in creating a book I am proud of."

Gail Berger Darlow, Clinical Professor, Management & Organizations, Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University

Together, we decide what you’d like to share and the format that best serves your goals.

We then proceed with thoughtful interviewing, careful listening, patience, and clear, well-turned writing.

This becomes your hardcover memoir, your legacy in print.

During this meeting, we determine what you’d like to accomplish with your memoir along with the voice you wish to convey. We discuss a timeline, responsibilities and fee structure. If we decide to work together, I will then send you a written services agreement.
You complete a short questionnaire on your own or with the help of your family. This ensures that all of the dates and places are correct.
This is where the magic takes place! During each one to two-hour session we chat in-person or on video about your life experiences and values. At the end of our last interview session you will provide the photos you’d like included.
The writing stage starts with organizing your story on my wall-sized whiteboard. Then I sit down at the computer and turn the soundbites we uncovered during the interviews into your memoir manuscript.
Ready to read through your masterpiece? Take up to two weeks to review the first draft, making sure we’ve covered it all.
After you and I agree on a cover direction, our talented production team jumps in to design it. They also lay out the book’s interior pages.
Your book is sent to a commercial printer. If you’d like it to be available for sale through global book distribution channels such as Amazon, this is the point at which we make that happen. Once we ensure that every page has printed to the high standard which we demand, your copies are delivered to you.
