how much is the printed book?
$39 softcover or $49 hardcover — all-in, free shipping, no subscription.
is it really them in the story?
Yes — your photos, their names, and the story you share shape both the words and the art on every page.

Edit any line free before you unlock. After the pages are illustrated, you can redraw any page, steer it with a note, or ground it in a real photo of the actual moment.
