We capture a life story through guided conversation and turn it into a polished autobiography, for the people you love.
Why us
Most lives go untold. We change that. Through guided voice conversation with an AI shaped by a published ghostwriter, we capture the stories that made you - and turn them into a polished autobiography your family can treasure for generations.
Jess Whitehill - published ghostwriter and screenwriter - designed every question and chose the literary voices our AI writes in. The craft is hers; the AI is the assistant.
Choose the literary voice that fits your life - from sparse and biblical to warm and conversational.
Every word traces to something you actually said. We weave; we never invent.
A relaxed, guided conversation - you talk, and we capture every detail and shape it into your book.
You talk. We take care of the writing.
Crafted by a published ghostwriter with 15 years of memoir experience.

Eight distinct writing voices.
How it works

Step 1
Through a guided interview at your own pace - voice or text, paused and resumed as life allows - we help you tell the story that's been waiting to be told.
Jess Whitehill, founder & ghostwriter. Every interview is shaped by her craft.
Step 2
Your words, in your chosen voice - from gonzo to gentle, journalistic to literary - shaped into a full-length autobiography. Every fact comes from you. Nothing invented.
Step 3
A beautifully bound book - soft cover, uncoated cream paper, with a glossy photo signature for the moments you want shown. Printed to order, shipped direct.
We don't just capture stories. We shape them.
Who this is for
For when you've realised the stories are going. Dementia, terminal illness, or simply time - we help you capture what cannot wait.
For when you want to leave more than your name. Grandparents, parents, retirees - your story belongs to the people you love.
For everyone in between. You don't need to have built an empire. You just need to have lived.
Eight voices, one story
Each voice is drawn from a real literary tradition. You'll choose yours after you begin - and you can change it later.
Wild, first-person, fever-dream prose. For lives that were lived loudly.
"The morning broke like a fist through a stained-glass window…"
What you receive
An illustration of the craft. Yours will be uniquely your own.
It was a normal weekday morning in the Browning household. Four siblings in crinkled uniforms rushing around as they shoved Vegemite toast in their mouths, arguing over who had taken the longest hot shower. Mum was making the final touches to our lunchboxes while the three labradors made circles around the chaos, their tails sweeping crumbs off the kitchen floor.
Dad was already in the car. He'd be in the car most mornings, the engine running, hand on the horn at exactly 8:14. We had four minutes from when that horn first sounded to when the second blast came - and the second blast was non-negotiable. Mum used to say Dad's car horn raised four children faster than her own voice ever did.
I was the eldest. I was meant to set the example. Instead, most mornings, I was the one running back inside for the maths book I'd sworn I'd packed the night before.

From the founder
“After fifteen years of ghostwriting life stories, I've learned most people don't struggle with having something to say - they struggle with knowing how to say it. My Story Now was built to make that part simple. The technology is ours. The story is yours. We just help you tell it.”
- Jess Whitehill, founder & ghostwriter
