Memoirs
Preserve your legacy of life stories in a private-edition memoir based on personal interviews. You can rely on Hawley's discretion as you tell your story your way. Options include adding photographs and private publication.
Wherever you live, she will record your life stories in person or on the telephone and will do related research. And because she is the author of both novels and nonfiction, you will be working with a pro. Contact her to discuss price and possibilities.
Ethical Wills
Ethical wills, also called legacy letters, date back hundreds of years and are increasingly popular, because they preserve family stories, history, and values. They can include recipes, notes on favorite books, and highlights of special occasions and holidays, too.
Hawley's ethical-will guide helps you decide what you want to say when she interviews you. An interview of up to one hour is $350, which includes four copies of your professionally written ethical will, and, of course, you can order additional copies.
Memoirs and Ethical Wills in Estate Planning
Increasingly, attorneys, wealth managers, and financial planners ask clients to complement their legal will with an ethical will, which bequeaths beliefs and traditions, or with a memoir. Both set financial decisions in context and may reduce risk that a legal will be contested.
Memoir Editing and Ghostwriting
If you have written your memoir and want it edited, Hawley will give it professional polish. Contact her to discuss your project.
Hawley will also co-author or ghost write a memoir for private or commercial publication.
