Great service and great experience!
I’ve had a great experience with Storykeeper so far. First of all the customer service prior to purchasing was excellent. I got all the help I needed to make my decision to purchase. The buying experience was great too. And now that we’re signed up we’re enjoying the service!

A special gift for my descendants
A brilliant idea and a Christmas present from my daughter.
I started to think back to my early childhood and realised I needed to go back further than that to my parents and grandparents for decisions that shaped my life.
I have been researching family history which I can trace back to 1500’s. A brief history of predecessors of how, when and where they lived. Now I can continue with my life using your prompts for reminders.
A great gift to leave my children and grandchildren, there are always questions you wished you asked your parents.

Brilliant idea
Easy to log in, and start answering questions. This was a gift from our daughter, and so far it’s been easy and fun thinking about things I haven’t thought about in years! The layout is simple and gives scope for a lot of detail.
It’s a really clever idea – many of us wish we had asked our parents and older relatives more about their life experiences. Their stories are lost forever if we don’t. StoryKeeper allows us to make a permanent record of our own experiences.

An easy way to preserve family history
I have wanted to write somewhat of a memoir for quite some time. Something for my kids and grandkids to refer to once I’m gone. It was difficult to get started. Without being aware of my intention, my girls gave me Storykeeper as a gift, and it’s been a wonderful way to get started. The weekly questions keep me focused and on track. Even if the question offered is not something I want to write about, it prompts other ideas. The opportunity to add pictures further enhances the experience, ultimately adding to the final product.

Mindful Narratives
This is a such great idea. I can simply answer the questions my three sons ask and they get to learn about my earlier life, before they were around. It also keeps my mind alert remembering my past.

Anyone can write a book
Only proper writers can write books can’t they? Well no. Don’t compare writing a thick hard-backed book with running a hurdle race. Both sound like insurmountable challenges. Concentrate on jumping just one fence at a time and it then sounds like an achievable challenge. StoryKeeper invites you to write one chapter/story at a time, gives you inspiration in terms of subject matter and constructs your efforts one at a time to ultimately create a book. But don’t think too far ahead, just concentrate on the first piece. In terms of subject matter, write about what you know and who knows more about your life, your parent’s life and your grandparents life, than you? Now consider how valuable a family record your book would be to your younger family members as they grown up and start to think about their roots……

Have a Question?
How does StoryKeeper Retirement Work?
With StoryKeeper, creating a retirement gift book for a newly (or soon to be) retired loved one is a simple and collaborative process.
Once you have signed up, you will be contacted by our team via email within the hour, and you can provide some more information on the individual you are looking to honor. They will then kick the message gathering process off for you, making your experience as stress free as possible
Next, invite friends and family to join in. They can easily contribute their own well-wishes, personal messages and images via email. Each contribution adds a unique perspective and enriches the collective tribute.
Once you’re satisfied with the content, we compile these contributions into a beautifully designed keepsake book. You have the option to choose from various design customizations to make the book unique and meaningful.
Finally, the printed retirement gift book will be delivered free of charge, a tangible tribute to a career by those who matter most!
What's included in the initial purchase?
A StoryKeeper Retirement Gift Book purchase includes a hardcover, color book of up to 440 pages, filled with messages and images contributed by colleagues, friends and family. We do not impose any limitations on the number of contributors or the content included
One complete book edit and enhancement is also included in each StoryKeeper purchase – delivered by our talented in-house editing team.
Delivery of the final book is free, anywhere in the US
How many contributors can I have?
We allow an unlimited number of contributors per book!
Do I need to format the retirement book myself?
No – that’s where our dedicated team come in! We are here to support you every step of the way with final formatting, editing and design of your hardcover retirement gift book.
They will take the submissions made and, with your general guidance, compile them to a professional standard
When can I order the physical copy of the book?
The retirement gift book can be ordered as soon as the account owner decides – typically once all of those they have chosen to contribute a message have done so.
How customizable is the book?
Users have the option to customize the book cover color and the overall layout of the gift book.
Our in-house support team is also always on-hand to support with the book creation process – from editing and enhancing content to assisting with book cover design at the time of publication.
