Every life holds a tale only it can tell. A tale that deserves to be told.

Premium writing for individuals
Heartfelt tales for children and families, or personal reflection narratives written with emotional depth and literary quality.
Some stories are not written by their tellers, but for them. They are entrusted to another, a quiet collaborator, who listens with care and writes with intention.
Think of me as a personal historian or a private writer. Someone who can capture the memories that deserve to be passed on, shape your reflections into real literary pieces, or write tales that could make a perfect gift.
The narratives I create carry emotional depth and lasting value, and are tailored to the individual — yourself or someone you care about. They may mark a milestone, honour a loved one, or simply preserve a memory that matters.
Each offer is emotionally grounded in legacy, connection, healing or desire to be remembered; tailored to the recipient – you, your child, your friend – and creatively polished – written with care and style.
Writing Sur Mesure
Looking for an original story to mark a special occasion? I will transform your thoughts, memories, feelings and values into lasting narratives that evoke emotions and capture your perspective.
Je donne vie à vos histoires et à vos idées – I bring stories and ideas to life, turning your experiences into written memories or imaginative narratives.
Premium bespoke stories – are they right for you?
This work may be particularly meaningful for:
- individuals wishing to preserve their personal or family story
- adults who have experienced something profound and wish to reflect on it in writing
- those going through transition or healing process
- children, through the gift of personalised storytelling
- anyone seeking a written piece that carries emotion, memory and meaning, or those who wish to give a deeply personal, one-of-a-kind gift.
Personalised stories
I work with individuals and families to craft personal narratives shaped around life events, emotional journey or legacies to be passed on.
These may honour a loved one or capture a meaningful moment such as reunion or migration. While the events are real, I craft the narrative with literary care, where characters, settings and details are woven into a coherent, elegant story.
This is not about simply recording facts. It’s about highlighting what matters:
- remembrance, a desire to be seen, known, understood – memories that continue to live on
- legacy you wish to pass on
- connection to culture, family, place, or self, that ships identity
Custom short stories
You may come with a scene, a feeling, a character, or simply a question you want to explore. I help you shape it into a complete short story with structure, clarity and emotional depth.
This can be a collaborative process, where you remain involved as the story unfolds. Or, if you prefer, I may create the story on your behalf.
Either way, the final work will carry your essence and original vision, refined through the lens of professional storytelling.
Children’s adventures
A bespoke tale where your child is the hero – an adventure story, bedtime story or heartwarming fairy tale – written as a standalone story or a series of mini stories, each becoming a mirror, reflecting the child’s best qualities back to them.
I craft these narratives around the child’s name, personality, interests, and the values you wish to highlight, be it kindness, courage, curiosity or friendship. They are often commissioned as keepsake gifts to celebrate a milestone, offer encouragement or simply show a child how seen and loved they are.
Perfect for parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, godparents or teachers – anyone wishing to give a gift that is both magical and meaningful.
Reflective storytelling
These stories are written to accompany moments of personal transformation. They make take the form of affirmations, meditative narratives or dreamlike imagery, tailored to your emotional or spiritual state.
Reflective storytelling is less about what happened and more about how it feels; the space between grief and healing, the quiet of a new beginning, or the search for clarity. Each piece is written with empathy and intention, tailored to your life’s current chapter and crafted to be a source of comfort, insight and emotional resonance.
These narratives are more abstract, poetic or symbolic. They focus on your emotional state, inner growth or spiritual exploration, rather than simply documenting facts.

The options listed above are all separate, one-off purchases. Once completed, the final custom written product is delivered as agreed with no recurring commitments.
Please note that I do not take on stories involving abuse, sexual trauma, domestic violence, war-related experiences, or themes centred around race, religion, gender identity or political discourse. I also do not write about topics of a sexually explicit nature. My focus is on emotionally grounded storytelling that supports reflection, legacy and healing within clear, respectful boundaries.
Not sure where to begin? Let’s find the right path forward, together.
How does it work?
The process begins with a conversation, where I listen, ask questions and begin to gather the essence of the story.
From there:
- I organise your memories, ideas or themes into a clear story outline.
- I shape your material into a clear and compelling narrative – emotionally grounded, written with literary care.
- You receive the final story either in a text format, PDF or other, in line with our agreement.
A thought to leave you with
These stories are quiet and powerful. They are made with dignity, discretion and care.
For many clients the writing process itself becomes a meaningful part of the journey; not just the finished piece, but what it brings into focus along the way.
If there’s something you feel is worth remembering, honouring or understanding more deeply, feel free to contact me – I would be glad to listen.
Disclaimer: While I do my best to provide high-quality guidance, your results will ultimately depend on your own commitment, implementation and consistency following delivery. Outcomes may vary and no specific results are guaranteed.
