The "Dead Good Advice" Newsletter

Sign up before you sign off

Let’s be honest: no one really wants to talk about death. But here you are, curious enough to click. And that already puts you ahead of most people.

This newsletter is for people who believe in facing life’s awkward stuff head-on. The ones who know that a little planning now means fewer headaches and fewer family dramas later.

Every now and then (not too often, I hate spam too), I’ll drop into your inbox with:

  • No-nonsense guides on things like wills, powers of attorney, and digital legacies

  • Gentle nudges on what to sort now, before it becomes someone else’s problem

  • Thoughtful prompts to help you consider the emotional side of 'leaving well'

  • The latest news that matters when it comes to end-of-life planning

  • Links to my most insightful blog posts, so you can stay sharp without wading through fluff

All delivered in a straightforward style with a little good humour.

What's more, by signing up you'll also get access to all my templates and guides, like Wills, Advance Decisions, checklists etc. on a single handy page with all the links.

You don’t have to do it all at once. You just have to start, and then keep going. My newsletter will help with that.

Thanks,
Alex

P.S. Please check your junk folder if you don't see this come in within a few minutes of signing up!

About the founder. I'm Alex Johnson, and I built Not So Grave after my father died suddenly in 2023. Going through his estate taught me more about death planning than any guide I could find at the time, partly because of the documents he'd left, and partly because of the gaps where he hadn't. I'm not a solicitor or a financial adviser, and I'll always tell you when to use one. What I am is someone who's been through it and wants to make your turn easier.
