If a man empties his purse into his head,
no man can take it away from him.

An investment in knowledge
always pays the best interest.

Foreword
Surviving Death
by Pastor Paul McGraw

This book is based on my personal experiences with survivors. Survivors are the people left behind after a loved one dies. An inescapable part of living is dying. I have experienced, and enjoyed, nearly three decades of pastoral ministry to people who have lost loved ones to death. All the accounts contained herein are factual. I have not included people s names on purpose, to protect the privacy of people involved.

Please accept my deepest sympathy on the loss of your loved one or loved ones.

It is my prayer that you the reader, you the survivor, will benefit from reading this book. It is my hope and desire that you are able to process your grief with fewer doubts, and less anxiety; knowing that what you are experiencing is common to everyone who loses a loved one. After reading the chapters, I hope, and pray that you will be determined to live a rich, full life once again.

God bless you in your grief journey, and in your recovery.

Our life is an apprenticeship to the truth
that around every circle another can be drawn;
that there is no end in nature, but every end
is a beginning. There are no fixtures in nature.
The universe if fluid and volatile.

Permanence is but a word of degrees.

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

The daily bread of grace,
without which nothing can be achieved,
is given to the extent
to which we ourselves give and forgive.

~Aldous Huxley

Many persons have the wrong idea of what
constitutes true happiness. It is not
attained through self-gratification
but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.

Never bend your head. Hold it high.
Look the world straight in the eye.

When one door of happiness closes, another opens;
but often we look so long at the closed door
that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.

When we do the best that we can, we never
know what miracle is wrought in our life,
or in the life of another.

Writer's Summit Tip #14:

FOREWORD
stands for - be FORE the WORD.

If you spell it "Forward" it is wrong and the mark of a rank amateur. If an editor sees that, they know they have a novice author on their hands.

Writer's Summit Tip #10:

Hand your first proof to someone who is a skilled editor and allow them to 'clean' up your book BEFORE you share your book with friends and family.

Remember, your first proof is not ready for publication! It is like a newborn baby with the gunk still on it. If you do you share your book prematurely with non-professionals, you open yourself up to unnecessary criticism and (unintentional) dream stealing.

Your confidence is what will drive the book's initial sales and any early words of criticism can ring in your ears for a long time. Wait until you are confident in your project and solid in your dream - BEFORE you share it with others, especially those closest to you whose opinions you value highly!

Angel on Board was originally released in 1998. It has gone through many evolutions to get to its coveted 'Most Positive Book Ever Written Status.'

The author took 3 years for EJ Thornton to write it and she wrote it completely in secret. She had to because her then alcoholic husband was the antagonist of the book. She wrote it to him, hoping he would read it someday and understand that when he used grief as an excuse to stay drunk, he WAS NOT honoring those who had passed on.

Unsuccessful in that quest, the author released it to the world, where it was received with open arms and the healing power of its pages became immediately and perpetually apparent.

It is a fantastic, fun and easy read - at the surface level, but it is a healer when it gets into the hands of anyone with an unresolved grief issue, even if the only reason the grief is unresolved is that it is recent.

Angel On Board will introduce you to a new dimension of reality and you will never be the same again...

Writer's Summit Tip #15:

Just getting your book corrected, like an English teacher would correct a paper IS NOT the equivalent of a book edit. Of course, you want your book to be as error free as possible, but there are so many other things a seasoned book editor looks out for that actually have nothing to do with right / wrong.

A seasoned editor will look for repeated words, active vs passive tense in sentences and ambiguousness is sentences. All of those sentences may have their i's dotted and t's crossed, but there is always room for improvement or clarification. An experienced book editor will help make your book better, not just correct.

Writer's Summit Tip #23:

If you are seeking out a commercial publisher, find out if they require you to be represented by a literary agent. Go on to the publisher's website and look for their submission guidelines.

Follow all submission guidelines very carefully. Your work won't get past the mail room interns if you haven't followed the submission guidelines. You'll receive a rejection letter and get all disappointed, but what they don't tell you is that you didn't even make it out of the mail room because you didn't follow directions!

As much as anything else, submission guidelines are a test on whether or not you are easy to work with - if you can follow simple directions or not.

If you ignore submission guidelines, publishers will ignore you...
