<p>We wrote this outline so you can write your story. It is difficult for many people to discuss the logistics associated with dying. It is sometimes challenging for people to articulate thoughts and memories which have defined their life. The sheer overwhelming nature of grief can make it hard for those left behind to navigate the aftermath of a loved one passing on. This book has been designed to facilitate people being able to clearly set out what should happen after they die. And what they think about life. And anything else they happen to want to say.The sections include: The immediate aftermath; My life and legacy; Treasured memories, Thanks and Things; Nuts and bolts; Notes, quotes and thoughts.The purpose of the book is to prompt people to leave a blueprint for their relatives. But it does more than that. It invites each writer to share with people who will have access to the book, additional insights into their life. Those who were loved, reflections on achievements and challenges, and observations on issues of consequence and importance. The book can be as detailed or as broad as the writer dictates. It can be as intimate or general as suits its author. It can be as serious or funny according to the personality of the individual in control of this intimate literary journey.This book is not a legal document and doesn't take the place of a will.</p>

<p>Following the death of her alcoholic newsreader husband, Lissy McAndrew sets out to save her magnificent but dilapidated Auckland mansion from compulsory acquisition by the corrupt local council. It is not a lonely plight since due to life’s vicissitudes a number of her friends and relatives have taken up long-term residence in her house – not all of them invited. Aided by a maverick lawyer who believes that setting the eclectic team up as a religious school might exploit a loophole in the law, and drawing on the talents of a good-looking gardener/world-class hacker, the women set out to thwart the plans of a morally bankrupt property developer and his misogynist mate, the mayor. But an overarching dilemma sits uneasily with Lissy as she begins to reflect on whether keeping the huge property intact is the right thing to do in a fast-evolving city where housing prices are extortionate and the prospect of owning even a small home is increasingly out of reach for most people. Perhaps she really does need to get out from underneath her wisteria arch and face the reality that the world around her has changed and she may have to change too.</p>
