New MyStories Service Makes Printing a Memoir as Simple as Sending an Email

MyStories works by sending a selected individual an inspiring weekly email with a question to answer about their life.

When the interviewee completes the questions and gives the go ahead, a hardcover memoir containing their responses and attached photos is printed for them.
