Arc

Arc  ‘To move with a curving trajectory’

Arc Life:

An Arc Life story follows the big themes that span the whole arc of your life, in depth. As you recount your memories and anecdotes, the Ginger Tale writing and editing team curates your stories, finding those themes, to create a fascinating book that gives a real sense of your character and your passions as well as the key events in your life.

Or it may be that the story of a particular aspect of your life deserves to be comprehensively told; whether that is running a charity, your world travels, or charting a career on the stage.

Your interviews drive the story, perhaps interwoven with thoughtful insights from some of your close friends and family. We leaven an Arc Life book with the Ginger Tale secret recipe for the unexpected - that could include short dramatised scenes that bring a few of the key stories to life or intriguing ‘splashes of colour’ that reveal just how you tick. 

Rich with photographs, an Arc Life book is not just a record of events, but a perceptive, eclectic and beautiful treasure trove.

Arc life facts and figures: A hard-backed book of up to 170 sides, based on 12 hours of interviews with you and featuring contributions from family. It could also include dramatised scenes or insight sections, and up to 60 of your photographs. Depending on the complexity of your story and the elements you would like included, an Arc book will usually take six to seven months to create. Each project is priced individually, with costs starting from £25,000, which can be paid in instalments. You receive twenty-five printed and beautifully bound copies of your Arc story.

Arc Business:

Any business has its own story, whether it is an established name that opened its doors a century ago, or a tiny start-up that went from back bedroom to entrepreneurial success story in a few short years. No dusty tale of balance sheets and fine print, this: as the human stories of the triumphs, the disasters and the lessons learnt are told by some of the people involved, the Ginger Tale team discover and write up the emerging themes, curating those stories to give an in-depth sense of the business journey.
