Your parents have a story.
Most of it will disappear if nobody writes it down.
The book you give someone before it’s too late.
Tell Me More is 50 questions that help your parents write the story of their life. Not a journal. Not a keepsake. Something closer to a documentary interview on paper. In their own words. In their own handwriting. For the people who will one day wish they had asked more.
I never asked my mom what she was afraid of.
I never asked her how she really felt about the life she built. II never asked her what she would have done differently. Then one day I couldn’t.
50 questions. A complete life.
The questions don’t start heavy. They start specific. What did Saturdays feel like when you were ten? Who came home at the end of the day, and what happened in the house the minute they walked in? What’s something you almost did that would have changed everything? Specific questions unlock memories that broad ones never do.
