Here are some features which make this the easiest way to record your story with the My Story App:

    • Use Voice-to-Text – speak your story and watch the words type themselves;

    • Convert your hard copy diaries or printed writing into an electronic format

    • Or, a mix of all of the above!

    • You can add photos throughout your story

    • No need to worry about structure, record the stories as they come to you, then move chapters around into their correct order with the easy-to-use Library interface

Ever thought, I want to write my story?

I think you should.

I am passionate that everyone should record the stories inside them – for yourself, for your loved ones, for posterity, for healing from trauma and simply because, yes, you are interesting!

To that end, I have tried to make my writing services affordable for all – whether you want someone to write your story for you, or you want to write your own, with or without my help.

I developed the My Story App, which enables every single person to tell their story – those living with a disability, children, non-literate people, and exceedingly literate people – EVERYONE! No one story is less important than another.

But who am I anyway?

I am PASSIONATE that everyone tell their story and feel emboldened because of it. Or healed, or excited, or just plain old proud!

I started life as a journalist on the Sydney Morning Herald, Australian Women’s Weekly, Mamamia and My Child magazine here in Australia, and The Mirror UK, New Woman Magazine, The Irish Times, and Drapers Record overseas, among others, writing about the good stuff – fashion, beauty, entertainment, travel, food and celebrities. Something people always find amusing about me is I may well have begun my career amidst all the fluff and sequins of a fashion editor’s world, but boy do I love the purrr and scream of an F1 engine!

After raising four babies whilst freelance writing from home, I decided I wanted to mingle with adults, and began my life story writing business, and coaching young writers to tell their stories. Along the way, I picked up accreditation as a NSW Government Creative Kids Provider, certification for Narrative Therapy in the Community, Lifeline Accidental Counsellor, and am a Board Member of Life Stories Australia. I have now written over 60 life stories in the past decade, and have mentored thousands of young writers to realise their storytelling dreams!

Yes, I can’t get enough of this writing business.

So, please do get in touch and let’s get started on YOUR story.

Felicity.

I have earned the trust and satisfaction from hundreds of customers, all over the country, by providing reliable, high-quality service. Check out what they reckon!

We were able to capture Mum’s life story while she was in palliative care. We sat around her bed and she was able to reminisce, which really brought joy to her, and it wasn’t obvious we were getting her life story down at the same time, with the recording and transcribing function in My Story App. Not only do we have a beautiful memento of Mum’s life, but that was such a powerful time spent together in her last moments with us.

Felicity’s My Story App was amazing, so easy to use! We’d been struggling to get Dad to write his life story and to help him with it, but with Felicity’s close guidance, we were able to finish within 6 months. And the book is beautiful! We treasure it so much and Dad was absolutely thrilled! EVERYONE should do this!

“Documenting my dad’s life story is something that I have always wanted to do, but never had the time to do it and had no idea where to start. Felicity took care of everything!  The only thing we had to do was think about anything specific we wanted included in his life story and the rest was up to whatever my dad wanted to share. Dad was surprised at how much he enjoyed the experience. He found Felicity easy to talk to and whilst he was a bit nervous to start, soon felt comfortable and no doubt could have talked to her all day! The story that Felicity wrote was so wonderful. She used his words and expression and was able to craft it into a perfect reflection of my dad’s life. She even unveiled details of his life that I had never heard before! I am thrilled to have my dad’s life and memories captured in one place and it is something I will treasure forever.  PS Mum is next!!!”

“Thank you so much Felicity, this is just what we envisioned and I’m sure it’s importance won’t be truly clear for many years to come yet, but we love Dad’s story! We appreciate your time, effort and patience.”
