Memoir Writer

Your life story
written for you

What the books cost and when to pay

You weren’t the cheapest but we were impressed by the number of memoirs you have written. You really know what you are doing.

It was something I had wanted to do for years but never thought it would happen. It was certainly worth the money.

When to pay

Payments are in stages, one at the start followed by four others. These stages will be set out clearly for you so you'll know exactly where you are.
The length will never be exceeded without your permission.

How far I can travel for interviews

I am based in Richmond, North Yorkshire

Up to 1½ hours if we work together face to face over several weeks.
Up to 2½ hours if I stay overnight nearby.
If you're further away than that we can work by phone or video call

Will there be any extra charges?

All my prices are based on the number of words, not on how many hours we work together because everyone is different.
Any extra words are charged in proportion (but only after your agreement in advance).
Any extra photos are £15 each.

I charge mileage @ 30p per mile.
Plus travelling time from Richmond, North Yorkshire: no charge for a two-hour round trip.
After that: £40 per hour.
So a four-hour round trip would cost £80 plus mileage for each visit.

If I need to stay overnight I will charge for a modest b&b.
