FAQs

How does Paper Kisses work?

It’s simple. You start by purchasing the product. Then we will email you the link to story guide form. Once you complete this, sharing memories, favourite moments, and photos of your loved one. We use that to create a beautiful, customised and uniquely personalised storybook, first delivered as a digital eBook. Once you're happy with it, we will send your Paper Kisses storybook to print and deliver it to your door.

Do I need to be a good writer to complete the form?

Not at all. Just speak from the heart. Our form includes gentle prompts
to help you share the details — we’ll take care of turning your words into a
crafted story.

How long does it take to receive my story?

Your digital book will be ready within 3-5 business days after we
receive your completed form. Printed books are available after you approve your
digital version and typically take an additional 7–10 business days for
printing and delivery.

What kinds of stories can I create?

Our stories are designed for:

  • Children remembering a loved one
  • Families separated by distance (e.g. deployment, relocation, FIFO)
  • Legacy gifts from grandparents
  • Letters between siblings or partners
  • Gentle grief support for any age

If you’re unsure whether your story fits, reach out — we’re always happy
to guide you.

Can I choose the tone of the story?

Yes. When you complete the form, we’ll ask who the
story is for and how you’d like them to feel when they read it — comforted,
joyful, reassured, etc. That helps us shape the language and tone to suit the
reader’s age and emotional needs.



Can I request changes after receiving the digital version?

Yes, we offer one round of small edits to ensure your story feels
just right. You’ll have the chance to review before deciding whether to print.

Do I have to upload photos?

Photos aren’t required, but they help us visualise and personalise your story. If you prefer not to include them, we’ll still
create a heartfelt and beautiful piece based on your words.

Are the illustrations AI-generated or hand-drawn?

We use carefully crafted illustrations, created with ethical AI tools and artist input. Each one is designed to complement the story’s emotion and tone — soft, gentle, and meaningful.

What format does the digital book come in?

You’ll receive a high-quality PDF eBook that you can read, share, or print at home. It’s perfect for bedtime reading or quiet moments of remembrance.

Can I get a refund if I change my mind?

Because each Paper Kisses storybook is uniquely written and illustrated based on your memories, we’re unable to offer refunds once work has begun. These are one-of-a-kind, made-to-order creations, and we put great care into every detail.

If you have concerns before your story is printed, you’ll have the opportunity to review a digital proof and request light edits to ensure everything feels right.

What if there’s a mistake in the printed storybook?

If something’s gone wrong due to an error on our side (e.g. incorrect printing, missing pages, damaged book), please contact us at hello@paperkissesstory.com within 7 days of receiving your order. We’ll make it right.

I haven’t submitted my Story Guide yet — can I cancel my order?

If you haven’t submitted your Story Guide form yet, and it’s within 48 hours of your purchase, you may request a cancellation. After that point, we begin reserving your slot in our production schedule.

Can I create a story for someone who has passed away many years ago?

Absolutely. Memories have no expiry date. Whether recent or distant, your stories still matter — and they can still bring comfort and connection.

Is my information kept private?

Always. We treat your stories with care and confidentiality. Your personal data and photos will never be shared or used outside the creation of your book.
