Your Story, Written by Us
The Autobiography, Reimagined
Writing an autobiography or memoir has always been either time-consuming or exorbitant. Until now.
Living Legend is the autiobiography writing service that helps regular people capture their life story. We interview you and write your story within 7 days with no long-term commitment. Each interview produces one micro-memoir capturing a distinct part of your life. All you have to do is talk—we’ll do the writing.

What Is Living Legend?
Living Legend is the modern way to create an autobiography or family storybook.
We create personalized memoirs that put you at the heart of the story. Our interviewers uncover your unique experiences and handle the heavy lifting—like writing and editing—so you can focus on sharing your journey.
The Problem
Historically you’ve had two options for writing your autobiography: spend a ridiculous amount of money on a ghostwriter or traditional life story writing service ($10,000+) or have the time, skill, and discipline to do it yourself.
The Solution
By discussing your life one era at a time and leveraging newly available technology, our memoir writing service significantly reduces the cost and effort required to tell your story.
All You Have To Do Is Talk
We interview you over Zoom to capture a meaningful slice of your life. Your first chapter can be in your hands in as little as two weeks.

How It Works
Get one micro-memoir at a time, producing one chapter in the story of your life. For each chapter, you’ll meet with a human interviewer to discuss your experiences. No need to plan! They’ll do the heavy-lifting. After your interview, we’ll draft your story within 1 week.
Every micro-memoir includes the interview, 1 round of revisions, a digital PDF, the audiobook of your study, and 2 hard-cover booklets shipped to you.
1. Pick a Topic
Everyone has many stories to tell—stories about your first love, last career, or even family history stories you want preserved. Instead of tackling your entire life at once, Living Legend lets you focus on one topic at a time.
2. Tell Us Your Story
We’ll chat with you via Zoom for 1 - 2 hours, gathering all the details and reflections that make your story uniquely yours through an in-depth interview.
3. That's it!
Within a week, you’ll receive your beautifully crafted story as a PDF that’s easy to share. A few days after that you’ll get your physical booklet in the mail that you can save as a keepsake.
