How long does it take to create a book?

Last updated on 13 Feb, 2026

Life Story Books

Our interview is completely self-paced. Some people complete their story in a single sitting, while others enjoy taking their time and refining their answers over several months.

If you are interviewing a loved one yourself, we recommend setting aside at least 3 hours. The questions naturally spark meaningful conversation, and you do not need to complete everything in one sitting.


Tribute Books

We have made it as simple as possible to gather contributions from friends and family.

The overall timeline depends on how quickly contributors respond. We recommend setting a deadline at least 1 calendar month before you would like the printed book delivered. This gives enough time to collect responses, complete the design process, and move into printing.
