Leave Your Story Behind
Picture
There are many reasons to want to write a biography or a memoir.  Unless you already have a significant public profile, the story will not make money, so money isn’t one of them.  Telling your story is really a matter of putting your house in order, and this can be done at any age.  It is a gift to relatives and friends, who may be interested, and it is particularly a gift to yourself.

Sean David Burke is an experienced teacher who has written a number of books for teachers and of general interest.  His website can be viewed at www.earthsideeducation.com  After enjoying supporting some friends in their biographical efforts, and working on his own family history, Sean realized he could assist people to approach this task in an enjoyable, efficient and productive manner.

If you think you would like to engage with Sean in drawing out your story, just put some words on a page and send it to him at earthsider@gmail.com , or contact him to arrange a meeting.  The initial consult is gratis and obligation free. 

Services will include all or some of the following:
  • Proofing and editing
  • Reminders and encouragement
  • Suggestions for reorganization of text
  • Clarifications of meaning
  • Interrogation towards better conveying meaning and story
  • Application of historical context
  • Interview and recording
You will need access to a word processor and email.

Regards,
Sean Burke
