About Dearly Told Stories

Your life doesn’t need to be famous to deserve a book.

Dearly Told helps adults turn spoken memories into an autobiography. Create your own, or give someone you love the opportunity to tell theirs.

What we do

Six guided phone conversations explore the life you want to record. Your memories are organized into a readable first-person story, with photographs you contribute privately. You review the draft, request one consolidated revision round, and approve the final story before printing.

The package is $249 and includes six interviews of up to 25 minutes each, story writing, photograph collection, review, and one hardcover copy. A printable announcement is included for gift buyers.

Who operates the service

Dearly Told Stories is operated by SK Union City Holdings LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company. This legal business name may appear on Stripe checkout and your receipt. Our customer contact is hello@dearlytoldstories.com.

How the interviews work

A clearly identified AI interviewer guides the conversations. The storyteller gives consent in the secure portal, then uses an ordinary telephone, the call-in number, and a private interview code shown there. Recording and transcription require consent. You may skip questions or stop; do not share private codes by email.

No writing or app download is required for the calls. A web portal is used for setup, consent, photographs, and review. A trusted family member may help.

See the process before purchasing

Our conversation-to-chapter demonstration shows how spoken details can become connected paragraphs. The fictional sample demonstrates how spoken memories can be organized into a readable autobiography.

From approval to delivery

One hardcover is included. After the interviews and photograph collection, the storyteller reviews the written story and approves the final text before it moves to printing and shipping.

We estimate book delivery within 30 days after final manuscript and photo approval. A gift announcement is available after checkout and setup. It is separate from the finished book. We cannot promise a Christmas book delivery date. If a particular delivery date or physical specification is essential to you, email us before purchasing.

Your story stays yours to approve

Customer events and dialogue should not be invented. You can correct names and facts, request removal of passages, and approve the final story. Your private material is not used as public advertising without permission.

Your purchase includes a 30-day money-back guarantee from purchase. See the refund policy for later stages, and our privacy policy for handling of information.
