Give a Whole Career Its Own Novel

Yes, and it works well as a group gift. One person answers the questions, so gather the stories from everyone first: the projects, the habits, the disasters that are funny now. Additional copies of the same book cost less in the same order, and the dedication page is where the whole team signs.

Enough to describe a normal day and a few memorable ones. The questions ask what they do, what they know best, the people in their life and what they always say, and a few specific answers give the story more to work with than a full resume would. You can answer as many as ten and skip the rest.

It is a novel built from your answers, not a record of what happened. The names, places and turning points you provide are used, and the scenes around them are written to read like a book. Every copy carries a short note that the story is a work of fiction, so nobody mistakes it for an official history.

Allow about four weeks for a printed book to reach you before the party. The book is written and laid out in about an hour, then printed to order, and free standard shipping inside the US is an estimated 11 to 14 business days. Priority and Express are available at checkout, and the digital edition arrives within 24 hours if the party is sooner.

Life Story is the one to pick if you want the book to follow their actual career, and that is exactly what the wizard calls it. Comedy suits a workplace with a long list of in-jokes, and Adventure or Drama suits a job that involved real risk. You can change your mind and see the story before you pay.

The Digital Edition is $29, the Paperback is $39 and the Hardcover is $59. Both printed editions include the digital copy, and standard shipping within the US is free.
