About Susan Briscoe:
I write a blog called The Death Project about living while dying.
I am a writer and poet. Before becoming ill with terminal cancer a year ago, I was also a college English teacher.
What brings you to Death Cafe?
I started writing about death as a positive experience twenty years ago! I am so glad the conversation has expanded since then with the Death Cafe movement.
What would you like your legacy to be?
I hope to contribute to and encourage the conversation about death in our death-phobic culture!
I believe that embracing our mortality deeply enriches our lives and makes them more meaningful.

This is my uplifting article on living with terminal illness, published last month in the Huffington Post. They gave it this tilte: "I Am Dying From Terminal Cancer. Here's What It's Taught Me About Living."

This is my blog about living while dying! I started it a year ago when I was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Check out the essays On Dying and Living.
