Porch Swing Tip of the Week: In Others’ Words
 
Have you sent friends and family members an invitation to give their input into your life stories? You can ask for big-picture impressions of your personal history; another’s thoughts can be so encouraging, even if you’ve heard them before. Or request observations about a particular event that you and someone else experienced. For example, siblings often remember what happened differently from how you do. (Of course, yours is the right version, but you can humor them, right?)

These outside viewpoints can add depth, color, and emotion to your book. On your StorySite, just click on In Others’ Words for assistance requesting your friends’ or family members’ perspectives. 

Need additional help? Contact us at 833-767-2411 or inquiries@porchswingstories.com 

We’re always here to help.

We have very much enjoyed, helping people gather, tell, and preserve their life stories over the last several years.

At this time, life has other plans for us, so we are ceasing operations at Porch Swing.

If you have any questions please contact us at info@porchswingstories.com

We recommend that you save any stories you placed on your Storysite that you choose to keep prior to December 31, 2025. (Open the chapter you want to save, hit Edit My Chapter, and copy and paste to Microsoft Word or another format.)

Thanks!
