Robert Paxton, President / Personal Historian
As a young college student I was assigned to write a biography about an ancestor and I fell in love with my great-great-grandfather's life story. I uncovered one of his handwritten journals in a library and that document became an instant heirloom. Later, as a novice businessman, I came across the account my grandfather had written of his life. I was thrilled to learn that he had experienced the same challenges I was facing. His wisdom and the example of his perseverance, recorded many years before, inspired me and helped me feel connected to a larger purpose and a sense of tradition. Since that time I have been fortunate to research the lives of other ancestors, and to read about incidents in their lives.

I believe there is great value in preserving the stories of lives, whether the events chronicle the individual's family, business, or community. All too often these stories are not really appreciated until
the individual is no longer available, and the details are difficult to retrieve.

That is why I created WriteMyHistory.com. You have a story that needs to be preserved. You have people who love you, who want or will want to know the details of your life. Please, for their sake, and for your own, preserve that story now. Even if you are relatively young, begin to record the events of your life while they are still fresh in your mind. Or maybe you love someone whose story you want to preserve. Consider offering them and the rest of your family the gift of preserving their life story. You will treasure it for years to come.

At WriteMyHistory.com we provide you professional writing services in a timely fashion. We have refined our interviewing and writing skills over twenty years, so you can trust that when you work with us we will help you get your story from your heart and your memory onto the page in a way that will engage and entertain your readers. We respect the privacy of our clients and recognize that there are some incidents or subjects that need to be handled delicately. We take great care to tell your story your way. We love words and the way they can convey a personality. Your story should convey your personality, and we can help with the process.
