Your life is a remarkable story. It’s filled with experiences, people, and moments that shaped you into the person you are today. And now, you have the opportunity to share your story with the world.
At Hanashi Catching, we specialise in capturing your life story and turning it into a stunning, professionally written book. Our bespoke service includes six one-hour in-person interviews, during which we’ll record and transcribe your memories. Then, our team of experienced writers will transform your stories into a beautifully written book that captures the essence of your life.
Our goal is to create a one-of-a-kind keepsake that you and your loved ones will treasure for years to come. Your book will be a tangible representation of your legacy, documenting your unique experiences and providing an intimate glimpse into your life.
With our personalised approach, you’ll work directly with our team of writers to ensure that your book is a true reflection of your voice and personality. We’ll capture the details that make your story unique, from the people you’ve met to the places you’ve traveled.
How it Works
Our process is designed to be seamless and stress-free.
We’ll handle all aspects of the book creation process, from the interviews to the design, so that you can focus on enjoying the experience of seeing your life story come to life.
Initial Consultation
The first step in our process is an initial consultation. During this consultation, we’ll discuss your goals and expectations for your life story book. We’ll also provide you with an overview of our bespoke service, including the interview process and timeline for completion. We want to ensure that we understand your vision for your book and that you have a clear understanding of our process before we begin.
Interview & Transcription
Once you’ve decided to move forward with our service, we’ll schedule six one-hour face-to-face interviews with you. During these interviews, we’ll record and transcribe your memories, capturing the details that make your story unique. Our experienced writers will then take your transcribed interviews and craft them into a beautifully written book that captures the essence of your life.
Book Design & Delivery
After your book has been written, we’ll work with you to design a customized cover that reflects your personality and the theme of your book. Once the design is finalized, we’ll print and deliver your book to you. You’ll have a tangible representation of your legacy, documenting your unique experiences and providing an intimate glimpse into your life.
The job Jennie did for me was of exceptional quality and I truly enjoyed the occasions we spent together during its preparation.
It was magnificent. I thought I hadn’t lived much but Jennie sat with me and asked me many questions about my life. I realise I had done many things. It was wonderful to remember them.
Oh Jennie, you’re making me remember things (in a good way!)
