Publishing Your Family History: Stressless LifeStory BooksAs mentioned in Publishing Your Family History: Stress-Free Timeline Books, you don't have to be a writer to publish your family history! Take the stress out of the daunting task of sharing all of your hard work, and publish your family history the easy way! One of the easiest ways to publish your family history, if you’re not much of a writer, is with a pregenerated ancestor story, which can also include a timeline! Print out your family history stories using ancestor profiles with facts and tidbits of info! Pregenerated Ancestor profile stories are a fantastic and easy option to share all your hard work with your family or the public! They are also an easy to view and absorb option, which makes them a great way to get others involved! I usually use a family tree/genealogy program, such as Family Tree Maker, to print out various reports, trees, timelines, stories, etc., but if you don't have a genealogy program, Ancestry has their LifeStory printouts! Check out what you can do with an Ancestry LifeStory, below! Ancestry LifeStory/Ancestor Profile Printout Example:*Tips:

Publishing Your Family History: Stress-Free Timeline BooksNot much of a writer? You can still publish your family history, the easy way! I have spent the last few days working on my own genealogy, which hasn’t happened much in the last 7 years, as I am pressed with a full-time job, client work, speaking events, and more, but I took a few days for myself, while trying to forget all the things that I have to do. 😉 One of the things I worked on was trying to clean up some of my ancestor profiles a bit, on Ancestry, while adding more details to their timelines. Then I remembered that this is one of the easiest ways to publish your family history, if you’re not much of a writer, that I preach in my long-given presentation, “Publishing Your Family History”. Print out your family history stories in timelines with facts and tidbits of info! Ancestor timelines are a fantastic and easy option to share all your hard work with your family or the public! They are also an easy to view and absorb option, which makes timelines a great way to get others involved! I usually use a family tree/genealogy program, such as Family Tree Maker, to print out various reports, trees, timelines, stories, etc., but if you don't have a genealogy program, Ancestry has great printouts, as well as MyHeritage!
