Rutger Bruining’s grandfather told him the most amazing stories -- stories about his role in the Dutch resistance in the Second World War, meeting Rutger’s grandmother and his work as a doctor in the Caribbean. But after his grandfather passed, some of his stories faded and he was unable to keep track of all of the details. This led to the premise upon which StoryTerrace is based: a biographer for every person. Now StoryTerrace has a network of 650+ professional ghostwriters around the world and has documented thousands of life stories. Click here for how the simple process works.

StoryTerrace is a personalized gift that's perfect for this Mother's Day or Father's Day. Many people are cherishing family memories more than ever, with a recent nationwide survey showing 73% of respondents have a relative they wish had their story written down. Additionally, the top 3 family members people looked forward to hearing stories from as children were their mothers (54%), grandmothers (51%), and fathers (48%). A StoryTerrace gift card can be given by an individual or presented as a thoughtful group gift from the entire family.

For anyone who wants to preserve their stories – or perhaps have dreamt about writing a memoir but simply don’t have the time or the skill – StoryTerrace will turn their life story into a beautifully compiled book. Clients are matched with a professional writer based on their location, background and personality. They meet in person (or via video call) to talk through their most cherished memories and discuss the structure before the writer puts pen to paper. The process is overseen by the StoryTerrace editorial team, resulting in a beautifully designed, hardback book with photographs, along with digital copies for loved ones.

In 2014, Rutger left a successful career in private equity to create this platform for people to chronicle their life stories and those of loved ones. Hear more from Rutger Bruining about the inspiration for StoryTerrace and how listeners can capture their own stories.
