The Essential Guide to Helping Others Overcome Grief & Loss

When my parents died, I quickly learned what was helpful (friends who listened and were patient), and what wasn’t (people who told me how I felt, preached their beliefs, or avoided the subject completely). It made we wonder about the experiences of others. I interviewed hundreds of people about their losses and asked where they found comfort. I share their answers, secrets, and the top ten things NEVER to say to someone who’s grieving. You’ll never have to feel awkward again when reaching out to someone after a death. Whether you are reaching out to someone who is grieving, or you are the one dealing with the death of someone you loved, this book is for you.

Alicia King

Alicia King writes from the unique perspective of one who has lost many of those close to her. Her mother's death was suspicious enough to launch a homicide investigation and lengthy legal rollercoaster. This ultimately led to a sentence of more than 15 years for her mother's boyfriend. During the next eight years she would lose her grandmother, step-father, step-mother, and father, as well as miscarrying in her second trimester while awaiting her mother's boyfriend's trial. Ms. King currently lives in Tennessee with her husband Dan and their two children. She's a world-class worrier, earning her the nickname, The Queen of Concern. She is also an award-winning songwriter, writing mostly for film and TV.
