Questions to Ponder

Let's imagine that you treasure the stories your mom has told you over the years. Let's also imagine that she's not inclined to write them down. What do you do?

Call me and we'll set up a time to capture these stories. Before you come, encourage her to think about a few of the following questions concerning her childhood:

  • Describe your father. Describe your relationship with him.
  • Describe your mother. Describe your relationship with her.
  • List the names of your siblings from oldest to youngest. Describe your relationship with each sibling.
  • Describe your pet(s). What role did pet(s) play in your life?
  • Where did you live during your childhood?
  • Describe the home(s) in which you grew up.
  • Describe the neighborhood(s) in which you grew up.
  • Describe the school(s) you attended as a child.
  • Describe your paternal grandparents. Describe your relationship with them.
  • Describe your maternal grandparents. Describe your relationship with them.
  • List three important events from your childhood. Why were they significant?
  • Describe a life-changing event that took place during your childhood.

My final recommendation is to gather a few of your favorite snapshots or photographs from her childhood. Then we'll have everything we need for a great audio recording session!

'Til Then,
