“Short memoirs of milestone moments, written with care”

Line & Verse — keepsake imagery for memoirs

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is Line & Verse?

Line & Verse is a bespoke memoir service, where key moments that define your life—joyful, tender, or bittersweet—are transformed into beautifully crafted stories. Each piece is a short, poignant narrative that preserves the essence of a specific event. Line & Verse are all about capturing life’s best chapters.

2. How does it work?

You begin by sharing your memory through our simple questionnaire (or a telephone interview if you prefer). From there, we weave the details, emotions, and nuances into a story that feels personal, authentic, and timeless. You’ll have the opportunity to provide feedback for any edits you want to make to the story. Once that is done, the final piece will be sent to you.

3. What kind of memories can I capture?

Anything that matters to you: a wedding, a birth, a milestone birthday, or even a quiet, fleeting moment that left its mark. Both joyful and reflective memories are welcome—what matters is the story behind them.

4. In what form will I receive my story?

Stories can be delivered a) digitally, b) as a paper-only printout or c) as a beautifully framed keepsake, perfect for sharing, display or gifting.

5. How long does it take?

Most stories are completed within one week, though we like to allow extra time for careful crafting and your input, ensuring the memory is told exactly as it should be.

6. Can I commission more than one story?

Yes. Each key chapter of your life can be captured, one memory at a time, creating a personal anthology of moments that matter most.

7. How personal can the story be?

Completely. We celebrate the unique details, the small gestures, the quiet emotions—every nuance that makes your memory yours alone. Our service is completely confidential. Your story is your story.

8. Can I make changes to my story?

Yes. Your story is a reflection of your life, and we collaborate closely to ensure it resonates with authenticity and heart. Once the draft is complete, it is emailed to you for confirmation that you are ready to proceed. At that stage, if you want to make a change, for example, removing something, let us know. Please remember that these are short memoirs focused on one specific event. Therefore, we aim to work within a maximum of approximately 1,000 words.

9. How much does it cost?

Pricing varies with format and customisation. Please visit our Products page or contact us for a personalised quote.

10. Is my story private?

Yes. Your memories are treated with the utmost care and confidentiality. They are yours alone, unless you choose to share them. The author of the memoir is the only person who reads your questionnaire and subsequently writes your memoir.

11. Can I gift a memoir?

Of course. A Line & Verse story is a perfect, thoughtful gift. Giving a memory preserves it so that it can be revisited at any time. You can buy one of our products or you can choose to buy gift vouchers.

12. How do I begin?

Start by filling out our Story Questionnaire. From there, we will guide you through the journey of transforming some of your favourite moments into stories that last forever.
