Handwritten,
from Dad
✦
His advice, his life lessons, his stories, set down in his own hand, for his children and the grandchildren who come after.
A pen. A journal with 100 questions. No app. No screen.
His words. His writing. His voice for generations.
Chapter I
100 Questions,
Printed in the Journal
✦
The questions are printed inside the physical keepsake journal. He opens the book, finds a page, and writes the answer in his own handwriting. Nothing to download, nothing to log into.
Five of the 100, so you can see the shape of it
- IWhat do you know now that you wish you'd known at 25?Advice
- IIWhat song takes you right back, and where does it take you?Music
- IIIWhat poem, prayer, or passage do you keep coming back to?Poems
- IVDescribe the house you grew up in.Memories
- VHow did you know you were in love?Love
That is five of one hundred. The rest of the journal goes on through advice for the hard years, the music he loved, poems and prayers, a lifetime of memories and what love looked like — asked the way a son or daughter would ask. The kit brings it all together: the linen-bound journal with all one hundred questions printed inside, the Handwritten pen, a presentation box ready to give, a private digital vault for the family, and a printed heirloom book bound at the end of every year. $149.

Describe the house you grew up in.
Two bedrooms, a porch we swept every Saturday, and a kitchen that always smelled like coffee and toast. Nobody in it was rich. Everybody in it was known.
— Grandpa Joe, 78
How did you know you were in love?
She laughed at something I wasn't trying to be funny about, and I thought: all right, it's her.
