A Beginner’s Guide to Starting Your Life Story
Discover the Stories Waiting in Your Memory Cupboard
We all carry stories tucked away — little treasures of moments, people, places, and turning points that quietly shaped our lives. The Memory Cupboard is a free 39-page guide designed to help you uncover them.
Using the metaphor of a cupboard with shelves, drawers, and vintage tins (cause we all have those in our old wooden cupboards, right?), this guide walks you through your memories shelf by shelf:
- Shelf 1: Objects that hold meaning
- Shelf 2: People who shaped you
- Shelf 3: Places & seasons that stayed with you
- Shelf 4: Turning points & thresholds, big or small
With thoughtful prompts, simple writing exercises, and practical tips, it’s perfect for taking a few minutes — or a few hours — over Christmas and the New Year to begin your story writing journey.
Whether you’re just starting to write or looking to reconnect with memories you’ve carried for years, The Memory Cupboard will help you take the first step — and maybe even inspire you to continue your stories in a gentle, supportive community.
Start exploring your memories today — download your free guide and open your own Memory Cupboard.
The Podcast
Tell Me Over Tea
This podcast is for anyone who loves stories, memories, and a quiet moment with a cuppa. Here, you’ll find a mix of personal reflections, Dear Nan letters, and heartfelt conversations with guests sharing their own life stories.
You’ll also meet members of Little Life Stories, who generously open up about their experiences writing their own stories — the triumphs, the challenges, and the small discoveries along the way.
It’s a cosy welcoming space to slow down, reflect, connect, and be inspired to gather the stories that matter — your stories, the stories of those around you, and the memories that shape us all.
I'd love you to pop the kettle on and take a seat at my kitchen table. Let's connect over everyday, lovely stories.
Hello ...
I’m Kim — a writer, story gatherer, and lifelong letter lover. I live in a little tin cottage on the Far South Coast of NSW, where I spend my days with my family, a handful of animals, and a head full of memories and stories.
I help women to gently capture their memories in words — through personal life story writing, handwritten letters, and recording the everyday moments of slow, seasonal living.
If you’re looking for a cosy space to begin your personal storytelling, but don’t know where to start — or you just miss the joy of sending and receiving real letters and you’d like to rediscover the joy of snail mail connection — you’re warmly welcome here.

The Lovely Letters Project
When I was a little girl, and well into my teens, I would sit at my desk, usually on the weekends, and I’d write letters. I had a list of people to write to – Nan, Grandma, aunties, friends from my Sydney school days, penpals from all over the world. I’d pick up my pen and become lost in the written word. Every now and then I’d pause to collect my thoughts, thinking about my week and the recipient of the letter – what would they enjoy hearing about? What had been going on in their lives? What had they mentioned in their last letter that I could respond to? What had my family members been up to that could keep them amused? It was a precious time in my life, and those childish letters that I wrote, most definitely created in me a desperate desire to connect with loved ones (and sometimes, those I’d never met before) through the written word.
So, if you would like to become a part of the Lovely Letters community, if you would like to receive and send letters about simple, daily life – perhaps share recipes, talk about meals, share gardening and home stories, and you are committed to exchanging them each month, then please join this project. You are the perfect person to begin this mission to bring back old fashioned slow mail. You'll love it!
Dear Nan: Heartfelt Letters From A Granddaughter
Dear Nan is where I wrote, in letter form, to my nan, for a year. It’s a special space where I share her story, and mine, and our 50 year long relationship, and the beautiful connection we had.
If you have had a grandparent that you treasure, and you enjoy nostalgic meanders, funny conversations, and simple stories of a life well lived, you will enjoy my Dear Nan letters.
