Memoir & Life Writing
Through conversation and craft, I help you capture the moments, lessons, and struggles that shaped your life. A finished memoir in your voice — that's what comes next.
Services & Pricing
Every project starts with a conversation. The Story Blueprint is where most people begin — and if you continue to the full memoir, the fee applies in full.
Guided Discovery
Four sessions to excavate your story, find its spine, and build a roadmap for the book.
Complete Ghostwriting
I write your memoir — 30,000 words in your voice, shaped around the story only you can tell.
One-on-One
You write it. I help you find your structure, sharpen your voice, and keep moving.
Client Work
Each project is different. Here's a glimpse at the kind of work that comes through our conversations.
Retired Executive
"Ben helped me see that my business story wasn't the real story. The real one was about the people I built the company with, and what it meant when we finally sold."
First-Time Writer
"I'd journaled for years but didn't know how to make it a story. Ben made me realize I didn't have to write it myself—I just had to be brave enough to tell it."
Career Transition
"My career had three completely different chapters. What amazed me was watching Ben find the thread that tied them all together—it made sense of everything."
Reviews
"The entire experience felt less like 'writing' and more like having someone who understood how to pull the real story out of me. Ben didn't just take notes—he asked the questions that made me remember things I'd forgotten."
Story Blueprint → Full Memoir
"I was terrified to start, but Ben made me feel like my story actually mattered. Three months later, I have a finished book. I read it and I can't believe I wrote it."
Full Memoir Client
"As a coach, Ben was direct without being harsh. He made me a better writer—not by correcting my grammar, but by showing me where my voice disappeared and how to bring it back."
Life Writing Coaching
"I came in with 40 years of journals and no idea how to organize them. Ben helped me see what story was actually trying to emerge from all those pages."
Story Blueprint Client
"This wasn't 'hire a ghostwriter and disappear.' We talked every week. My voice is all over that book. That matters to me."
Full Memoir Client
"The prompts in 'Your Story, Explored' actually worked. I found scenes I didn't even remember I had. Ben's approach to memoir isn't theoretical—it's practical."

About
"I don't want others telling my story. I want to tell it myself — before it's too late."
I started Your Story On the Page because I kept meeting people with extraordinary lives and no one to help them get it down. Stories that deserved to be read. Lessons hard-won over decades. Moments that shaped families — that would be lost without someone to ask the right questions.
The process is built around conversation. You don't need to be a writer. You don't need to have it organized. You just need to be willing to talk. I take care of the rest.
After 15 years in screenwriting and story development in Los Angeles, I learned that talking through a project is the most clarifying tool a writer has. The same is true for memoir. Your story lives in your voice and your memory — my job is to hear it, shape it, and get it onto the page in a way that rings true.
Every project is different. Every voice is different. But the goal is always the same: a finished book that sounds like you, and means something to the people who read it.
