Music to my ears dear Karla! Thank you! @Karla Kerr 🫂
Introducing: The Vizzy D Resource Library 📚
I've been wanting to build this for a while, and it's finally here. The *Vizzy D Resource Library* is a shared space of books, podcasts, documentaries, readings, newsletters and accounts that have shaped how we think about death, grief and ceremony, built by this community, for this community. You can find it in the Classroom tab. It's not a list I've put together alone. It's meant to grow with whatever's actually shaping your practice right now, the book that changed how you show up with a family, the podcast episode you've sent to three colleagues, the poem you keep coming back to for readings. Inside you'll find a growing library of: 📖 Books 🎧 Podcasts 🎥 Documentaries & Films 🕊️ Poems & Readings ✍️ Newsletters & Substacks 🌐 Organisations & Websites 🎓 Courses & trainings 🎵 Playlists Comment below with all your suggestions! Just include what it is, who it's by, and one honest line on why it stuck with you. We're not after exhaustive lists here, we're after the things that actually changed how you think or work. This is one of those small, ongoing things I hope becomes genuinely useful over time. Curious to see what this community pulls together... Only love, Amy 🐦‍⬛

@Beth Macleod omg - amazing recommendations. Thanks so much Beth!
🐦‍⬛ Visible Friday #13: Funerals Reimagined + Vizzy D Resource Library
Darlings - Happy Friday! I’ve got two tasty treats for you today, both ready & waiting for you in the Classroom tab. 🐦‍⬛ 1) Introducing: The Vizzy D Resource Library 🐦‍⬛ The *Vizzy D Resource Library* is a new shared space for the resources that have shaped how we think about death, grief and ceremony, built by this community, for this community. You can find it in the Classroom tab. It's meant to grow with whatever's actually shaping your practice right now, the book that changed how you show up with a family, the podcast episode you've sent to three colleagues, the poem you keep coming back to for readings. A shared shelf of books, podcasts, documentaries, readings, trainings and accounts that have shaped how we think about death, grief and ceremony. Comment your suggestions in the new *Vizzy D Resource Library* post pinned to the top of our community chat and we can together start breathing life into this exciting new global library for us all. 🐦‍⬛ 2) Funerals Reimagined: A Guide For Creating Meaningful Ceremonies🐦‍⬛ $27 AUD / $19 USD / £15 GBP I've been sitting on this for a while and I'm genuinely excited to finally share it with you. *Funerals Reimagined: A Guide to Creating Meaningful Ceremonies* is done, and before it goes anywhere else, I’m offering it to you. Thirty pages. Seven real ceremonies. The three shifts that turn a funeral from something people sit through into something they help create. A worksheet of prompts to actually put into practice with families. The hard part wasn't the writing. It was the cutting. I could have made this three times longer, but I wanted something you could actually share with a family, or read yourself in one sitting between appointments, not another PDF that sits in a downloads folder unread. My hope is that it helps in a few different ways. Maybe there's a story or a framing in here that gives language to something you already know in your bones but haven't quite found the words for. Maybe it's something you can point a family towards when they're struggling to imagine anything beyond the standard traditional funeral service.

Death…dinner parties? 🥂
Amy, thanks so much for the class about Death Cafes. It was such a practical session. I feel inspired and motivated to do this in my community. This question is for you, but for everyone also! Are you allowed to play with the Death Cafe concept? I know you said it being free is critical…but a month or so ago I had this inspiration of a Death Dinner Party. Getting either together a 6-8 known, or unknown people to share the topic of death over a meal. Does anyone know of this being done? Is it a bit too left of centre? Or any advice?

Love this @Sophie Hickingbotham ! So glad you’re feeling inspired - that’s exactly what it’s for. Such a great question and one worth unpacking a little. Death Café has a specific model - free, no agenda, open to anyone, tea and cake. If you’re working within that model it needs to stay true to those principles. But what you’re describing - a Death Dinner Party - is actually something different and something wonderful. It has its own lineage too. There’s a concept called “Death Over Dinner” that has been running globally for years - worth looking up if you haven’t already - some of the websites are expired but there’s still some articles and resources that may be helpful. But I’d encourage you to listen to how it’s emerging through you & make it your own for your community. We’ve actually used the ‘Death Over Dinner’ concept ourselves as a way to soundboard ideas and help curate larger Death Literacy community events. And I have friends who have hosted community dinner parties where each person brings a plate to honour someone who has died - their famous recipe, their signature dish - and the table becomes a jumbled potluck of food and stories and grief. It’s one of my favourite formats. The intimate dinner does something Death Café doesn’t always do - it creates a contained, curated space where conversation can go deeper because the group is smaller and the setting is more intentional. Six to eight people around a table sharing a meal is an ancient human ritual. Adding death to the conversation feels less radical in that context than you’d think. I fully support you and this idea - make it completely your own. A few things worth getting clear on as you shape it: is it more grief focused or death planning focused? What resources or pre-reading might you offer guests? how/would you curate the guest list? Or is it more informal - a local restaurant, tables reserved, talking points scattered across the table? ‘The Death Deck’ is wonderful for exactly that kind of setting.
