StoryWorth asked you to write. Loristry removes that barrier.

Sharing memories shouldn’t feel like homework. Have a conversation instead.

If you finished your book

Your stories are full of people. Now they can add their memories.

  1. We find the people in your stories.
  2. We show them to you, with the stories they appear in.
  3. You invite them. What they remember lands beside what you wrote.
If you stopped writing

You don’t have to write the rest.

Lori asks, you talk, she asks the next question.

On a scheduled phone call, or whenever you feel like calling in. Not homework, just a conversation. Your answers so far come along.

From answers to a story

Not a stack of answers. The arc of a life.

You answered one question at a time. Read together, those answers hold the arc of a life. Loristry connects the threads that run through them and shapes them into chapters, so your book reads as a story, with every photo kept where it belongs.

Then the people

Thirty-one names in the book. Six can still tell their side.

The sister who was there in ’63, the foreman who gave you the job, the neighbor with the boat. Your book already names them. We list every one, show you where they appear, and give you one link each to send. They get interviewed too, in their own words.

Questions

What StoryWorth readers ask

No. Loristry is a separate company. We read the PDF you download from StoryWorth. We have no access to your StoryWorth account and never ask for it.
The photos in your PDF come across with the stories they belong to and stay with their chapter.
No. Download the PDF of what you have. Lori reads it and asks the next question from there.
Reading your book and showing you its chapters and people happens before you choose a plan. Inviting people and talking with Lori are part of a Loristry subscription. Plans and the printed book are on the pricing page.
Only you, until you invite someone. Each person you invite sees the biography you share, nothing else.
Ready when you are
