Transform Your Story into a Legacy Book

Your life is a story. Make sure they know it by heart.
We all have those moments—the family gatherings where a grandparent starts a story that begins with "I never told you this, but..." We lean in, enthralled, promising ourselves we’ll write it down later.
But "later" is where most legacies are lost.
At Eternal Ink Projects, I turn those fleeting conversations into permanent heirlooms. Based right here in Gilbert, I help you bridge the gap between generations with professional, interview-based legacy books.
Sharing your story is one of the most therapeutic and rewarding experiences you can have. It is an opportunity to look back on the challenges you’ve conquered, the love you’ve shared, and the wisdom you’ve earned. You don't have to be a "writer"—you just have to be yourself.
Ancestry trees tell us where we came from, but a legacy book tells us who we are. Research shows that children who know their family history have higher self-esteem and a stronger sense of belonging. Give them the gift of their own identity.
Websites can crash and digital files can be deleted. A professionally bound, archival-quality hardcover book is a physical object that will sit on your great-grandchildren’s bookshelves 100 years from now.
The best time to record a story was yesterday. The second best time is today.

Hi, my name is Chris, and I started Eternal Ink Projects to bridge the gap between generations by transforming lived experiences into lasting legacies. I believe that every life is a masterpiece worthy of being recorded, ensuring that the wisdom, humor, and heart of today’s elders are never lost to tomorrow’s descendants.
Every life is a collection of thousands of moments, lessons, and laughs. Whether you want to capture "Life Lessons" or a comprehensive autobiography for future generations, I offer a path that fits your vision.
A legacy is meant to be shared. I know that many families want to ensure every child, grandchild, or sibling has their own copy to cherish.
A rush fee for families who need the book finished in time for a specific holiday or milestone birthday.
Sometimes, as we begin to look back, more memories surface than we originally expected. If you find that you have additional stories, family legends, or specific life chapters you’d like to explore in greater detail, we can easily extend our time together. Each extra hour of interviewing includes the behind-the-scenes work: professional transcription, narrative integration into your book, and additional editing to ensure the new material flows seamlessly with the rest of your story.
Please reach me at hello@eternalinkprojects.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Absolutely. My job is to ask the right questions to trigger your memories. I focus on the "small" details—the smell of your grandmother’s kitchen or the feeling of your first job—which make for the most powerful reading.
Most projects require 2 to 4 sessions, each lasting 60 - 90 minutes. We can do these in person in the East Valley or via a simple Zoom call.
For East Valley residents, I am happy to meet in the comfort of your home, at a local library, or at a quiet coffee shop. We can also conduct sessions via Zoom if that is more convenient for you or your family members.
Yes! The Heritage Vault package is perfect for you. Many families choose this to capture shared memories and different perspectives.
I use AI as a highly sophisticated editing assistant. It helps transcribe our conversations and organize them into a cohesive narrative structure. However, I personally review and edit every single word to ensure it sounds exactly like you.
Your privacy is my priority. Your recordings and transcripts are stored securely and are never used to "train" public AI models. You own 100% of the rights to your story and the final book.
Yes. You will receive a digital "First Draft." You’ll have the opportunity to correct names, dates, or details before we send anything to the printer.
If you have purchased a package that includes a hardcover book, you will receive a high-quality, library-grade book.
Definitely. Once the first book is designed, additional copies can be ordered at a reduced "print-only" cost.
The timeline varies by package. The Starter Legacy can often be completed in 4–6 weeks, while a full Heritage Vault project typically takes 4–6 months. We move at your pace to ensure the experience is enjoyable and never feels like a "chore." In some cases, a rush order can be placed for an additional fee.
I keep a digital "master file" of your book in my secure archive. If you decide two years from now that you’d like five more copies for new grandchildren or a family reunion, I can have them printed and delivered to you easily.
Yes! Legacy books are popular gifts for 70th- or 80th-birthday celebrations and anniversaries. I offer beautiful physical Gift Certificates that you can present to your loved one to kick off their storytelling journey.
Have a specific question about how the process works or which package fits your needs? Drop a note here and let’s start the conversation.
I will get back to you as quickly as possible.
