You are a big part of the pride I have in the book I now hold in my hand. My book has arrived and I am thrilled. Your team has provided me with so much help and understanding throughout this process. I so appreciate everything you have done and the time you have spent. Thank you.

Oh my gosh, that is amazing. She is just going to love this. This is fantastic. Thank you so much.

I struck pay dirt with My Stories Matter. Make a wise choice if you are looking to do the same thing. If your story really does matter it’s worth doing well. The collaborative approach that My Stories Matter adopts allowed for me to review their work as it progressed, making suggestions and rejecting or accepting what they delivered. The difference between the first and final offering totally justified my decision to partner with My Stories Matter. There is something rather special about receiving the final copies of your book. I ended up with a finished product that is easy on the eye, readable and supports the decision to publish my story.

I had to look at a number of [websites] but a lot of them were very complicated when I discovered My Stories Matter I felt it was the simplest method of gathering and collating my information together... It's so easy to do because you can say oh I remember such and such. At the end you've got it all collated together chronologically. The other thing I liked about My Stories Matter is the great communication with the people that work there. Kelly and Arnie helped me tremendously in putting this all together. The other idea I must tell you is take your time because you may never stop because you keep remembering things. It was really a journey of self-discovery for me putting this all together and I urge you to take the journey with My Stories Matter.

I Googled you and other companies, and looked at some of the design, editing and customizing options you offer and choose you! What a grand day! I am certainly excited to get the package after all the work to put this together. For Maria who onboarded me...For Arnie who helped edit....For Bianca and the team who patiently worked with me through the review process...And for you, dear Kelly, who managed the entire process and kept the project moving....Thanks to you all!

I'm a professional copy editor and proofreader in book publishing and I was so impressed by their knowledge... They were so pleasant to work with. It was such great value for your money.

Thank you and your team! I read the book when I got home last night and it is "flawless"! I wrote this for my son and grandchildren to give them a sense of their roots and to pass on some life lessons. I also wrote it to honour my parents who endured so much to give their three children a better life. You have been sooo helpful and such a pleasure to work with during this process. I am spreading the word in Toronto!!

This is fancy and this is beautiful. You guys were right since the beginning... I greatly appreciate the revisions and improvements you propose and that I agree with, to enhance the appearance of my book. You guys are doing a great job, I’ll make sure you’ll get a 5 stars review.I truly appreciate your professionalism. Everything looks perfect.

I must express my profound appreciation to the team at My Stories Matter. Their professional guidance and unwavering encouragement fueled my confidence to chronicle and complete my book.

They have gone above and beyond on many occasions. This is not something that I take for granted. They have been just as interested as I am in creating a Memoir that I will be proud to give to my family. I am extremely grateful for the highly professional care that I have received from Arnie and Kelly. I will happily do what I can to spread the word about My Stories Matter. I think it is an amazing service that many many individuals would love to learn about.

I chose My Stories Matter to have this book printed and it was just really important to me to choose a company, to choose a group of professionals that work as a team every step of the way. I cannot stress enough how seamless everything was from start to finish... I cannot talk enough about My Stories Matter. This is actually the second book that I've done with them that I've been so pleased with and I will continue to use My Stories Matter in future projects... I cannot stress the importance of just doing that through My Stories Matter. It's a great company and I will continue to use them.

The best thing that happened to me was finding My Stories Matter. The process was very easy, and the design team guided me through the process. Yes, easy even for a cranky old Army veteran like me. Scheduling meetings with the design team was very easy to help me get all of my questions answered and talked me through every step of the way to create my book. They even gave me suggestions on how to improve my story to make it more exciting for the readers of my book. We had a two-hour book signing event at a local bookstore in my hometown in Savannah, Illinois, The Blossom Bloom. We signed and sold 200 books in under two hours.

Everything about it screams quality, from the binding, photo quality, spacing, and paper thickness. Thank you for bringing my book to fruition.

It is truly a coffee table quality book filled with Calvin's memories and adventures. Family members were surprised and delighted when he presented them with their personal copy. Thank you for everything you did to make the book look so professional. You and your team did an amazing job. Thank you so much for upscaling the photos, they are crisper. I also want to thank you for your guidance and support through this process. My experience with you and My Stories Matter has been exceptional. Thank you again for taking a personal interest in my father-in-law's autobiography. Just a quick note to say how much we appreciate the books. Calvin is very pleased and inspired to write more.

This was a wonderful experience! Thank you for the birthday wrapping and lovely note. Great company! Thank you so much, Kelly. It was a pleasure to work with you, I appreciate all your patience!

My parents did a book about themselves, but it was questions and answers book. I much prefer how My Stories Matter does it where it's more of a story. We’re very happy with the book and service provided. It was exceptional! Next up is my husband! By the way, I am amazed how your team was able to restore my senior photo for the cover, the VW bus family pic, and the green motor boat family pic to name a few! Priceless! Thanks again for a very pleasant experience and outstanding product! ❤️

I have been intending to write a review of My Stories Matter since 2025, during which time I had assisted a dear friend to write a bitter sweet memoir. From the very first contact I had with Arnie, I was totally committed to working with them. The support, kindness, and professional service they provided made our experience that much more rewarding. We could not have created this beautiful memory without them. Our many thanks to all

The team at My Stories Matter did spectacular work to help me and my siblings write the story of our dad's life. We wrote the book to give to our mom on her 90th birthday. No other gift could have thrilled her more. The effort of the team was exceptional. Their attention to detail was intense, their advice greatly improved dad's story, and they delivered our books ahead of a tight deadline. We are grateful to them and couldn't recommend them more highly.

I would recommend anybody to write their story and direct them to “My Stories Matter” with your help I’m sure anyone can write their story. From the moment we had our first live interview, I knew that finding your company was a lucky day for me! I want to thank-you for ‘everything’ you have done for me, it has been a great experience working with you and I couldn’t have produced something to be proud of without you and “My Stories Matter” please thank all your team on my behalf. Over the last year you have helped, encouraged and advised me to produce something I can be proud of and pass down to family members as a record of my fortunate life. After looking through the whole document, that now has my dreadful errors and mistakes removed, I can now say, (thanks to you), I have something I can be proud of! It would have been so disappointing to have found them after fifty copies had been printed! The quality of the printed books is outstanding, especially the enhanced photos. Many many thanks, you are simply the best.

My Dad came home tonight and opened his book. I can’t express the joy as he opened the pages. The book is beautiful!!! We are so thrilled with the finished product and we are excited to order more copies. Thank you so much for your attention to detail and preserving my Dad’s memories! I’ve attached photos of him opening it for the first time.

Unequivocally one of the best experiences I have had. The staff: Daniel, Bianca, and Kelly were so very helpful in insuring that my project was completed the way I wanted and they made sure that the presentation of my memoir met my expectations. I would rate My Stories Matter more than 5 stars.

I would definitely recommend My Stories Matter. I was impressed by how quickly Dan responded to my inquiry and how he and the designers produced a hard-cover book exactly as I had hoped it would be. Dan was in touch with me regularly about the progression and, although I made several changes along the way, he was always happy to help and keep me informed. I now have 4 beautiful hard-cover books to share with my family.

My experience with My Stories Matters was very positive from start to finish. I received plenty of help as needed, with helpful suggestions to keep cost manageable and to ensure I was doing my best at writing our story; I am not a professional writer but our book proves me wrong. I am so proud and happy with the results of our finished story book. The communication between me receiving help from the professionals was excellent, especially with this being my first attempt at anything like this. When I presented our story book to two of our adult children on Memorial Day; as my daughter thumbed through it, tears rolled down her cheeks; my oldest son, stood quietly thumbing page by page, and commented that he had never seen anything like our story book and what it offered to our posterity. He is more stoic but I know my son and know that he was very touched. My wife passed away almost 2.5 years ago and this book was a work of love. We were married just shy of 51 years but knew each other 3 years before that as we were high school sweethearts. You will never regret working with the My Stories Matter team in making your treasure become a reality.

I can’t say enough good things about you, your professionalism, friendly demeanor and great advice throughout this project. The books are very nice and professionally done. Received your personal note too. Each chapter is so nicely organized and laid out. The layout of pictures is better than I expected. Thank you for all that you did for me in getting this project to completion.

We are so happy! Our book exceeded our expectations. Your site is very clear and user friendly. I really appreciate the professional and thoroughness we received from My Stories Matter. We will definitely order more books.

My mother-in-law truly loved the book! I can't tell you enough how grateful I am for all of the hard work that went into putting it together. I am a self-published author and know firsthand the diligence this takes. My mother-in-law was definitely surprised, touched, and overwhelmed with emotion from the beginning.

The book looks really good. I am really excited about bringing this project to final fruition after 40 years. Imagine! I never expected to have such a polished end product and I am so glad that I found you all to help me do this.

I am so moved by this book and can't wait to share it with my children. You put a lot of time into helping my dad and our family is very appreciative. I especially like the way you cleaned up the writing without changing my dad’s voice.

Don and I were VERY IMPRESSED with the book - the layout, the quality, the size!! We were absolutely delighted with [our son's] response! He was even a little emotional, having to wipe away a tear, much to our surprise! He was indeed very pleased and appreciative of all our work and yours that was put into his book. We also loved your very personal handwritten note that accompanied the book! That also meant a lot to us! We can’t thank you and the team enough for all the time and effort you have put into making this such a special book for our family!

I am beyond excited to receive my beautiful books. Opening the box actually made me cry. To the My Stories Matter Team, you will never know the depths of gratitude I feel for the beautiful way you put my story together. I can’t wait to send the books to my family. Can't wait to see what my grandchildren will think of me once they read my story.

Oh my goodness! It is just incredible to look at this and think about how my grandaddy is going to cherish and treasure every page. He is already telling everyone he is an author - really, he has no idea! It's amazing. It's beautiful. It's his life. Thank you so very much!

Beautiful! My brother and I are very grateful for the skill and care you and your team devoted to this book. And thank you for the careful packaging. We look forward to giving copies to our family members in the days ahead, starting with a family dinner this Saturday. I enjoyed working with you.

I just received my books and had to take a moment to express my gratitude. They are absolutely beautiful and exceeded my expectations. The book was a big hit with my kids as they were so surprised to be given such a special gift.

I want to extend my sincere appreciation to My Stories Matter, especially Kelly and Arnie, whose belief in the power of storytelling and commitment to preserving personal histories has made it possible to create the beautiful book in memory of my friend and teammate. Your quality and careful creation of the book, as well as your partnership and support have been invaluable every step of the way. with deep gratitude, Sheri Onishi

We are very happy with the books you delivered to us. It was for our daughters and they both loved it! So thanks again for the time you spent with us. We really appreciate it.

My Stories Matter did an excellent job formatting and producing my memoir, Serendipity by Grace. The team was responsive, thoughtful and respectful of my own vision. The quality of the final book is beautiful, and I'm very happy with the overall experience. Highly recommended. Thank you

I received my books today. They are beautiful. Thank you for telling my story. I will be referring you to my friends and family.

I received my books today. I couldn't be more happy with them 😁. Very impressed with you and your team and how much you all care.

I received the book this week and you are right, it looks beautiful! The family will be very impressed and thankful for such a wonderful keepsake.

Yes, the book finally arrived and I'm very pleased with the result. I especially like the way the photos turned out; both cover photos are impressive and the layout of the photos in the back is great.

I've enjoyed putting it together and looking back at some of our great adventures! Thanks again.

The photo enhancements look fantastic—thank you! I’m excited to see the rest.

My Stories Matter's professional staff knocked it out of the park! I am so grateful for the work you and your team dedicated to ensuring such a quality finished product. I Thank You All. They capture the True Story in itself Thanks Again & Again, Kevin

I’m happy with the content and lay out.

Thank you so much for sending over the updated version of the book. I truly appreciate all the hard work you've put into it, especially your diligent efforts in tracking down higher-quality photos and replacing the blurry ones. Your keen eye and dedication, particularly with images like Elliot Ness, Heathstone Historic House, and my dream vacation photos, have made a remarkable difference, and I can already see how much these improvements enhance the overall quality. I'm also glad to hear that all the changes we discussed previously, both over the phone and via email, have now been completed.

Got the book and it looks great. Thank you.

Thanks for this tremendous job. We are very happy

You all have been terrific to work with. Thanks a million!!!!!

Fantastic job on the cover! I am really pleased with the books. It has drawn remarks of = stunning.

Yes, I am happy with the results of the book and want to proceed to print. Thank you again for all your help.

Thank you for the excellent work on my memoir. I am happy with the latest draft and the suggestions from Kelly and Bianca. Many thanks for a good job.

Thank you so much for doing this!

I have just opened the copies. They look great! Thank you so much for putting it all together - Maria, Kelly congratulations all. This was quite a complex project as it involved a large number of photos being dropped into text. This always difficult with page breaks etc. My Stories Matter came up trumps and produced a wonderful book of memoirs that I was able to give to my sisters and daughters. All was managed perfectly in spite of being in Bristol UK! Thanks so much. Richard Fowler

The books are absolutely GORGEOUS! The quality far exceeds our expectations – we both shed a few tears when we opened the box! The family is so excited for the Book Signing Party! Thank you so very much for all of your work on this project! It is truly a treasure for generations!

Thank You

We received the book and absolutely love it! My mother-in-law was overjoyed and couldn't put it down! Thank you, again, for the time and attention you put into making this happen for us. Have a great day.

Working with My Stories Matter was a delight. I did have all of my memoir in my documents. Forwarded them with photos for front and back and more photos on the last pages. They compiled it just right with no errors.

I started writing my memories a few years ago and not knowing how to put them all together and then I found "My Stories Matter" they organized it, corrected, and published it and it was a very painless process they are very professional and friendly to work with. My book was a success friends and family loved it.

Thanks. I've received my books.

From the bottom of my heart I want to thank you for being a very good liaison on behalf of My Stories Matter. Wishing you all the best for the season and a blessed 2026. I cannot wait for my children to read them.

THANK YOU, happy holidays

Love the book. My Stories Matter did a great job

Thanks for all your help. We gave the books to the 3 grandkids on Christmas Eve. They were speechless! I thought that the books looked wonderful! They were all that I had hoped for and more!

Thank you so much for all of your help with this. You all have been amazing!

Beautifully produced book! Well worth the effort and expense. My impetus for writing my book was due to my wife’s battle with cancer. We are both senior citizens, and I wanted to ensure this LOVE LETTER was in book form for her to keep. As it turned out, she was totally cleared of this horrible affliction after undergoing a series of treatments. Still, the book is a permanent reminder of my deep affection for her. I saw the ads for MY STORIES MATTER, liked what I saw, and contacted them. The process, from start to finish, was logical and satisfying. I worked with several editorial people, and the collaboration was excellent. We eventually came up with something that we all thought would present exactly what I had in mind. I used pictures throughout, recalling memories that were important to us over all the years. The end result was an excellently produced final product that we treasure. A thought: reducing life’s precious moments to relying on only oral history can evaporate after one is gone. I know, in my own case, how I wish I had tangible things, such as memos ... or a book, regarding members of my own family who have passed on to answer the inevitable questions that seem to pop up later. I can’t just pick up the phone, as I used to constantly, and call my dearly departed mother and ask questions about our family’s past history long forgotten. Thus, my own words, thoughts, and pictures in this book can FIVE STARS!

Awesome!

I'm really excited about the book.

This is wonderful.

Thank you for all your hard work making this happen. Anything you can do to enhance and sharpen all photos is greatly appreciated.

Thanks again for your good work. I appreciate your attention to detail.

Looks great good job!

Thank you very much. So far the book looks outstanding.

Great - thank you. I am very grateful to My Stories Matter for working with me and my mom for the past year!

Amazing! The photos look great now. Thank you for all the revisions. This looks great.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU! My mom and dad have reviewed their Memoir book and they are so emotional about it.

I love the glossy paper in the book much better then the matte!

The parcel has arrived and the books look lovely. These photos are amazing! She was a career civil servant for 40 years, specialising in constitutional change and the relief of poor areas. Thank you for your patience with all my picky punctuation points etc! Thank you very much for all the trouble you took.

I've looked at the other services, and they don't provide the level of hands-on attention and help along the way that you guys do.

I'm having such a great experience with My Stories Matter, I just might have to make more books with you.

I am a boomer and have been looking for a site like yours for years now. I have dreamed about being able to have all of my memories in one place, easy to access. And here it is FINALLY! The site is perfection but I can't wait to see the improvements. I have already made 12 posts and will make hundreds more!

The reason for writing is to record my memoir, as I age, as I lose people around me, it bothers me that voices are quieted. Reasons people are the way they are are never known. I began taking notes on my phone in Notes, as they grew I needed a better place and I liked your format.

I have tried many times through the years to learn more of [my dad's] family history, but to no avail. Thus, I thought it time to record some of my history for [my children and grandchildren] to ponder and pass on.

I want you to know how valuable this experience has been for me. My mom and I are collecting the stories together; some of which I thought I already knew and am finding out how inaccurate my understanding is/was.

I know that the hours that he spent talking to you were extremely important to him. I only wish that we had started this process years ago. I feel like there are so many more stories to be told.

I cannot thank [My Stories Matter] enough for getting this together so quickly. It is really so special and I cannot wait to share it with [my son]. ❤️

She was actually really happy with the gift! I selfishly wanted her to do this for me so I can have it as her legacy when she is no longer here. I love what your company is doing!! Thank you so much.

I’m very excited because the books I’ve seen you put together are really beautiful and make wonderful keepsakes.

I love it!!! I feel so much with each chapter, the pictures bring it to life, and the format really makes it a professional book feel, how amazing. Love what you've done to pull it all together.

I can hardly wait to add more memories. It's fun.

It’s a beautiful platform and I’m very excited to record all of my thoughts and memories on it.

My Stories Matter will be the tool in helping me collect and filter the pieces of my own story that maybe someday, I’ll get out there!

I am terminally ill with stage 4 cancer and am writing my memories to share with my children and grandchildren. I love how easy it is to publish my stories.

Thank you, it was a honor for me to share my book with you guys.

Thanks for your help. I’m really enjoy writing my stories onto My Stories Matter.

The photo [restoration] is Beautiful- chalk and cheese. That was relatively easy to make a huge difference.

Thank you very much for reaching out to me. I am looking forward starting my memory book. I am thrilled with this gift.

I sincerely appreciate all of the [proofreading] suggestions. Thank you so very much - I cannot express my gratitude enough to both of you!

Thank you so much for the help! I'm meeting with my dad to get his first few memories recorded. I really appreciate the hands-on approach :)

I spent a lot of time researching different options and felt My Stories Matter best reflects the care, quality, and intention behind preserving my mom's story.

Thanks for the ideas. I agree pictures make it more enjoyable to read. I just read a book that was an autobiography and I couldn’t believe there wasn’t one picture. Only pictures were on cover and back of book. Did you see I wanted to change the title and Dedication page at some point? No rush on that. Just want to make sure you saw that. I am still working on other stories too. When I get several more I will contact you again. It won’t be for a while. With a trip and 2 separate eye surgeries I am thinking a couple months or more. Thanks again for your help and time. It has helped make this a great memory and time for me! Thanks to your awesome team workers too.

Mi agradecimiento también a las empleadas de la compañía “My Stories Matter”, especialmente a Kelly, por la asistencia, colaboración, apoyo y todos los servicios profesionales que me brindaron durante todo el proceso de producir este libro de mi biografía. No quería dejarla solo como un documento en la computadora o páginas sueltas en una carpeta o folder, sino conservarla en un libro y poder también hacer copias para quienes deseen tener una. [My thanks also go to the employees of the company “My Stories Matter,” especially Kelly, for the assistance, collaboration, support, and all the professional services they provided to me throughout the process of producing this biography book. I did not want to leave it only as a document on the computer or as loose pages in a folder, but rather preserve it in a book and also be able to make copies for those who wish to have one.]

My book came today and I want to tell you I’m thoroughly impressed by the work your company done for my family legacy! I’ll be ordering more in a couple of hours to send to family! Thank you so much for a very well done job! Grateful for your work.

I was searching for something online for my mum and found your website. It’s the best one I’ve found and something which I’ve always thought was a great idea.

I didn't think I had much to write about but you helped me remember so many things in my life that I could made a book.

I just wanted to say I love your product. The way you’ve done it with a scientific and psychology backing to it is really good.

I've just signed up (UK member) and have published my first memory of a recent trip. By far this is the easiest online journal/diary I have come across, and I've been looking for some time.

Just really impressed at the level of service. I thought this was going to be AI-generated and mass-produced.

I really like the model that My Stories Matter has created. I find it comprehensive and intuitive.

I appreciate your kindness. I been very happy with the direct and personal customer service with your company. I will tell people about you.

It was wonderful speaking with you today! Many thanks for getting us started and for including the family tree designs -- they are truly beautiful! And once again, thanks for making this process so pleasant and easy!

I received the book today. I appreciate the enhanced photos. I am very happy with it and excited to give it to my wife for her birthday. Thank you.

Having my mother's life stories, and her stories about my early childhood, are priceless.

A great creation, I really enjoyed having a space to upload, organise, and save my journals. I particularly like the 'jot down an idea for future' feature, very thoughtful of you.

I’ve enjoyed writing and I hope to spend more time doing so and to improve my writing style along the way. It’s incredibly therapeutic. I can certainly give My Stories Matter a great review.

It's so much better since the upgrade, I wouldn't change anything right now.

The book looks great so far, I think my dad has gone onto the mystoriesmatters.com website and made some edits

Because my Mother died of Alzheimers and so I know the reality of waking up and having no memory of my life before that moment. It is very important for me to record them because at 65 my memory is not guaranteed.

[My Stories Matter is a] helpful tool. I’ve tried it. Very powerful.

We purchased a different service for my husband, but he couldn't use it.

Your application is sooo understandable!

I'm looking forward to the next step to begin the process.

It was a nightmare trying with [other company]. I'm glad I don't have to touch a design program! It's worth every penny to pay someone to do this.

We are grateful to have found your service and looking forward to the process.

Thank you so very much for you and the team’s great work.

My book has now arrived. I am very happy with the level of production so thank you again for all that you have done.

Oh my goodness those are fantastic. I will certainly be happy to pay for those. THANK you so much.

Hello Kelly and Bianca Yes, I’m happy to approve the book for printing and binding now. Many thanks Vera

I want to tell you and your team what a wonderful experience this has been. I tell anyone who will listen! Thanks again so much!!!

I have enjoyed the process and it’s progress, you have been very patient with my tech fumbling during it’s process, keeping me well informed at every level offering good sound advice. Thank you.
