My father was a sea captain.
I'm Edward, a co-founder of Ethos. For years I tried to get my dad to put his life on paper. The journal stayed blank, the prompt emails fizzled. He didn't need generic prompts. He needed the right questions, in the right order, built around his own life.
I'd spent years writing life stories by hand. The craft was never the writing, it was the asking. So Ethos became that craft, for every family. I heard things about my dad I'd never known. That's what I want for yours.

Whether they share stories freely or take time to open up, most finish their book within 3 months.
"Mom said she had nothing interesting to say. Six weeks later I was crying reading her chapter about the war."
"Dad kept saying he'd do it later. Once he started, he finished in 8 weeks. Now it sits on the coffee table and the grandkids won't stop flipping through it."
"She finished in 5 weeks and asked if she could do more chapters."
"I thought my story wasn't worth telling. Now my grandchildren ask to read it every visit."
"My mom hates writing, but she loves to talk. Now I have a whole book of her stories."
"The questions brought back memories I'd forgotten for decades."
"Insane value for money. It was really meaningful for the whole family..."
"I was hesitant at first but he figured it out so quickly and the stories started flowing in. The book was a proper hardcover and felt good in the hand."
