Becky Daniel talks about her new book Checklist for Mortals, and why she thinks death doesn't need to be intimidating.
Question: You have a book coming out this month called
Checklist for Mortals: Preparing for Death's Arrival. Can you give us a quick synopsis of what the book is about?
Answer: It's 10 simple steps that anyone can start doing now to make their death easier on their family. It's a highly illustrated 36-page book, so you feel like you're reading a children's story. Most people find the idea of getting ready for death overwhelming, so my illustrator Devi Halim and I wanted the book to be as inviting, fun, and the least intimidating possible.
