Sticky start made perfect
After a slightly sticky start to my book (I blame AI) this was soon rectified by Terri Gordon who advised me to take a different route to the writing of my book.
Following on from this I enjoyed a trouble free, efficient and speedy conclusion to the writing of my book mainly due to the expert advice and help from my Project Editor Freya Coombes.
I was involved with all decisions including the lay out, title, photographs and colour. I am delighted with the finished product and would certainly recommend StoryTerrace to my family and friends.

Great experience
We are so happy we went with StoryTerrace for our novel. The candidate writers were all so talented, but we were able the find THE writer for us. We clicked with Nicola immediately and after several brainstorming meetings she wrote an even better version of our book. The overall experience with StoryTerrance was very pleasant. There was great communication and support from the company.

Highly recommended
After badgering my Dad to write his story down for years I finally realised this wasn't going to happen and so brought in the professionals. StoryTerrace is a fantastic way to capture your story, the book really captures my dad's character and we now finally have a beautiful record that has already been shared with friends and family. Barnaby (writer) and Alicer (producer) were great. My dad struggled a little bit with being the main point of contact and he missed a few emails that came to him prompting him to carry out the next step but the process itself is not too complicated although still required some time. Overall I would highly recommend Story Terrace.

My daughter and I purchased a package…
My daughter and I purchased a package to write my autobiography, and while our experience started positively, significant issues arise over time.
I had a great experience at the beginning of my journey. The writer is an amazing person and very talented. From the day we contracted with Story Terrace my daughter and I explained to the administration that it will take time to write a book and we are not in a hurry to do so. I'm a very busy businessman with many responsibilities on my shoulders.
Hidden Charges: From the outset, we were informed of various additional charges beyond the basic package, including:
Charges for exceeding word limits (e.g., $1,875 for 5,000 extra words and $2,250 for 6,000 additional words).
Fees for extra time with the writer, additional pictures, and even lines and pages.
A charge of $500 for a one-month project extension from August 14 to September 14, 2024.
Invoice #E8FEFFE9-0001
Aug 14 – Sep 14, 2024
Project extension fees - Novella
Qty 1
$500.00
Total due
$500.00
Amount paid
$0.00
Amount remaining
$500.00
While some of these fees are understandable to a degree, they were not transparently communicated at the start, leading to unexpected financial burdens.
Poor Customer Service: The representative handling our case, Xiaofang Ma, has been unresponsive to both phone calls and emails. This has impacted our ability to make timely edits to the manuscript, as access to our own book has been blocked. I have requested a call from her supervisor but have yet to receive a response.
Project Delays Due to Communication Issues: As a busy businessman, I explicitly communicated from the beginning that this project would take time, and we were not in a rush. The communication failures from your end have caused unnecessary stress and have delayed the progress of the book.
This experience has significantly impacted my trust in Story Terrace, and I Would not recommend the company to any of my friends or family members.

As seen on Dragons Den!
First heard about Story Terrace on Dragons Den but only followed up on that in January this year when I “stumbled” across their URL still open on my phone. Extremely professional people from Lucien who made the initial contact through to my writer Gill and Editor Alice who both captured my vulnerable story telling beautifully. The process and steps to be taken are very easy to follow, although as a very busy working woman I did find it hard to keep up with their pace! The book went to print (20 copies) on Tuesday 23.7.24 and I received them on Saturday 27.7!! Quality is exceptional, although at £60 per extra copy, it should be. I am delighted with the end result and would strongly recommend Story Terrace to anyone wanting a simple, practical, and friendly route to telling your own story.

Story Terrace are experts and have proved it.
I was guided by experts from start to finish and this was crucial in producing a book that I think is a true reflection of my story and the quality of the printed book is superb.

Although I was nervous about doing this, I felt comfortable with my editor and ghost writer, I did have a few unsettling moments when I had to change quite a bit of the story line, which quite frustrated me, as I did say the story needs to read true, but to be fair the editor and writer did change things for me quite quickly, and got it all correct at the end, so am completely satisfied now with the finished book

It turned out well. Those who have read it seem impressed not just with the content.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY
DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY. Storyterrace went into administration at the end of 2023. The company knew this was going to happen but just days beforehand they still let me purchase two Swift ST packages for which I paid £1198. I bought two vouchers for my parents as a Christmas present but unfortunately they decided they did not want to go through this book writing process. I requested a refund in early January and was told that I would receive a full refund. After then calling and sending more than fifteen emails I was assured that my refund had been approved and was on the way. In May I was still being assured that I would receive a full refund. I was then informed that the company was in fact IN ADMINISTRATION and that I’d have to request a refund from the administrators. After receiving no replies to the multiple emails I sent to the administrator, on 18th June I was sent a full administrators’ report from which I gleaned that I would not receive a single penny back from this company. The company had started up again sometime after it went into administration and is still taking orders from customers and trading as Storyterrace. It is abhorrent that the company would accept my order, then agree to a full refund, ignore my subsequent emails and calls and effectively steal £1198 from me.
DO NOT BUY FROM THIS DISPICABLE COMPANY.

Dear Kirsty,
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are truly sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.
We acknowledge the frustration you experienced regarding your refund request for the two StoryTerrace packages you purchased. According to our T&Cs, we can initiate a full refund within the 30 days of the purchased date, which is why we were unable to proceed your refund.
This was an error on our part, and we recognise the confusion caused, as it was a human oversight in the communication about your request.
The period you referenced was indeed a challenging time for StoryTerrace. We deeply regret that this impacted your purchase and subsequent attempts to obtain a refund. We understand how disappointing it must be, especially considering that your purchase was meant to be a special gift for your parents
Please rest assured that we are taking steps to ensure this situation does not happen again in the future. Your experience has highlighted areas for us to improve, and we are committed to making the necessary changes.
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. If you have any further questions or need additional support, please don’t hesitate to reach out us at complaints@storyterrace.com, as we are committed to assisting affected customers where possible.
