Because of the highly personalized nature of the books, we are unable to accept returns. We strive throughout the interview and writing process to understand and honour your story as told by you. However, should you feel, after the interview process but before the book has been completed, that you no longer wish to complete the project, we will offer a 50% discount on the price of the project to account for the time spent working on the project to that point, and no book will be created for you.

Once the book has been completed we will be unable to offer a refund due to costs incurred throughout the process.
