My initial foray into memoir writing involved recording conversations with friends, using software to convert spoken words into text.

However, this method proved challenging with strong accents, leading me to realize that my true skill lay in transforming words and pictures into print-ready formats.

When my friend Lesley, a professional memoirist, sought to expand her business, I eagerly offered my help. I designed a basic website, yourmemorybook.co.uk, which launched in September 2020.

Lesley, already successful with several completed books, asked me to assist with printing. Given the high costs of printing one or two copies, I suggested Print On Demand (POD), a solution that has proven effective.
