This book was born from a series of blogs that I was writing for my spiritual blog at Blogit.com over the course of the last two years. Searching for a topic to write about one day, I was lucky enough to have my muse slap me up side of the head with the idea of a man who learns spiritual truths from the Grim Reaper. I saw this as a fun way to get across some of the spiritual truths that I believe in and hoped that others would enjoy it as well. It turned out that many readers of my blog loved the entries and asked for more, and then suggested that I turn the posts into a book. The next thing I knew, I was writing the book over the course of about six months.
