Every family has a keeper of stories, and eventually that person is gone along with everything they never wrote down. This is how to get ahead of that loss: the questions that draw out real memories instead of rehearsed ones, simple ways to record a voice or a conversation without making it feel like an interview, and how to organize what you gather so it actually gets passed on. Patient, practical, and built for the ordinary evenings when someone finally starts talking.
