Your Story, Captured in Print

At The Tiroran Group, we specialize in long-form, narrative-driven books that celebrate milestones—like a 50th or 150th anniversary—and preserve the legacy of companies, colleges, and institutions.

Whether it’s for donors, employees, alumni, or the community, your story deserves to be told with care and precision.

With decades of writing and research experience, our process blends archival digging, interviews, and editorial excellence to produce a publication you’ll be proud to share.

Meet Your Writer

Before founding The Tiroran Group, Shona was an English professor with a passion for research and storytelling.

Today, she works with institutions across North Carolina and beyond to turn history into story—conducting dozens of interviews and poring through archives to bring nuance and heart to every project.
