| Publisher Description: "Surviving the Business of Dying" Companion Workbook MJ Charles has received numerous comments and questions as to how to begin the process of gathering one's important papers, since her award-winning book "Surviving the Business of Dying, a Guide to Why Final Papers Matter"was published three years ago. The original book speaks to her own experience, dealing with her late spouse's estate matters without any formal documents. She reminds us of the details and priorities that each one of us needs to understand and complete prior to our leaving this earth. Questions centered around not only organizing one's own final thoughts in order to write a will, but also how to compile lists in a concise manner, so that others will know what to do. In other words, how do we leave directions With this background in mind, MJ Charles created the "Surviving the Business of Dying" Companion Workbook The Companion Workbook is intended for use, both by single people as well as those with spouses or partners. This user-friendly format is a platform upon which thoughts can be assembled, while providing a forum for spouses and partners to share ideas. Wills and directives are covered, but there are also in-depth questions that perhaps neither party has yet to think of The author knows well what kinds of problems develop, when key information is missing or decisions are left hanging. The Companion Workbook presents the opportunity to "plug those holes". Practically speaking, this workbook is a "safe place" for all of the back-up details that do not make it into a will. It is not only useful during the will-writing process, but a completed workbook then becomes a valuable reference for family and the executor later on. Handwritten notes allow perspective and meaning. One's personal initials and dates on any changes provide insight and credibility. While the user does not need to read the original book, it is well served to note that the author's story is the basis for the workbook's creation. This letter-sized (8 1/2 x 11") layout allows space for answers to be written underneath each question. It is easy to store and includes a checklist with page numbers for reference. The Companion Workbook combines a simple presentation with a comprehensive overview. Start "the conversation" with yourself, a spouse or partner today. The effort to "get it right" becomes a gift to all concerned, eliminating stress and removing all doubt as to how a will will be executed and wishes fulfilled. |
