Hello.

I am Carol Baxter.

Tales of a Lifetime is the business I created in 2008 to embrace your story and assist you in creating it as a gift to share.

The awards I won during my days as a features reporter for the Payson Roundup Newspaper are filed in a drawer but the stories and the memoirs I have written since my time as a reporter fill my head and heart and make me smile.

Waiting is a cautionary tale never written.

I would be honored to help you capture your story.

Warmest Regards,

Carol Baxter

Human beings gravitate to stories as we seek to connect with others and understand a journey that is replete with choices and happenstance, trials and triumphs that last a mere handful of decades.
