Turn a Favorite Memory into a Voice Recording

The Town Sage Says...

Some stories are easier to tell than to write. A short voice recording can preserve a familiar laugh, a favorite expression, and the way someone remembers an ordinary day. It does not have to become a major family history project.

Ask whether the storyteller would like to be recorded and agree on who may hear it. Begin with one simple prompt, such as a favorite childhood meal. Keep the recording short and stop whenever they wish. Name the file clearly and ask a trusted person about saving a copy. Let the storyteller review the sharing decision afterward.

Try this: Record a willing storyteller answering one question for a few minutes.
