Do any of these scenarios sound familiar?Write my family history? Are you kidding me? The ones I’ve read are boring pieces of drivel.
Write my family history? Can you help me? I just don’t know how to get started.
Write my family history? I’ve started but can’t decide on what to keep and what to throw out. Can you be my editor?
