HOW IT WORKS THE STORY TERRACE PROCESS | STEP 4

Your own Story Book – How does it work?

In six simple steps, you can take part in creating your life story to save and share for generations to come. In this article learn more about Step 4.

Decide on the structure of your story book and send us your photos 

The writer proposes a structure for your Story Book after working with all the material collated. As soon as you’re satisfied with the proposed, he or she starts writing your book. During this phase, you can expect some extra questions from the writer to gain any missing information – filling in and padding out areas of the story will help to smooth it out around the edges and take it to the next level in terms of detail and flow. You can decide to answer these questions via e-mail, phone or video call.

Select the photos for your Story Book

Now it’s time to send us your pictures. Beforehand, you’ve probably had lots of time to overthink which photos will accompany your stories. It will be an overwhelming decision to conclude, but you will know deep-down the most important imagery to accompany the text, it may just take some time.

When you’ve made your selection, it’s crucial to digitize all the material. It is not too complicated and we’ve spent some time here at Story Terrace discovering the most efficient way to get it done. For the best tips to get through the process of digitizing as smoothly as possible: https://storyterrace.com/quick-tips-for-digitising-your-old-photos/.

Finally, one of your selected photos will form the basis of your unique cover. For this, we’ve selected two standard possibilities: one of your photos can comprise the main image or a special drawing created by our in-house artist, inspired by one of your photos can be produced. This way, we provide making your Story Book the special and personal document it should be. Please see an example of our books below….
