Long version Author Bio:

      For more than two decades Gretchen has quietly helped the bereaved all over the country
as a practicing medium. She combines this vast experience with her systematic approach to
explaining where we can choose to go after death and what we can choose to do in the afterlife
in her new book, Choices In The Afterlife. 

Thousands of readers know Gretchen Vogel from her extremely popular book, 
written under Gretchen Poisson, SOLAR GARDENING (Chelsea Green, 1994). 
Tens of thousands know her from meeting her in the pages of Sy Montgomery's
recent best-selling memoir, THE GOOD GOOD PIG. 
Few, though, know of Gretchen's gift as a medium and 
her breathtaking insights into what happens to us after we die.


Additional material:

Gretchen is an organic gardener who produces most of her family's food,
makes of hay for her horses and keeps flocks of chickens.
She brings this grounding and practicality to both her work as a medium
and to her simple writing style. Gretchen's earthy secular spirituality
comes through in her book, Choices In The Afterlife.  

Blerbs from the back of the book:

    Author and anthropologist Elizabeth Marshall Thomas (THE OLD WAY, THE HARMLESS PEOPLE, WARRIOR-HERDSMEN, etc.)
says of Gretchen, "I have seen Gretchen's (psychic) ability in other cultures but it is amazing to find it so close to home."

Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, who read parts of her manuscript in 1993, wrote that “The excerpts of your manuscript
interested me a great deal." 

Science and nature writer, Sy Mongomery (THE GOOD GOOD PIG, THE SPELL OF THE TIGER, etc.) writes of this book: 
"Even to this sometime-skeptical science writer, Gretchen's words ring true, bringing us light and assurances,
clarity and comfort about the most important choices we face in our future.”
