So, I used Chat GPT to check for additional ideas on what I should be including in an article titled ‘Series Re-Cap’ for the Gracie’s Way’s website (www.graciesway.co.uk) that I was intending to use to basically wrap-up the week-long Series of content on there – and on the project’s Instagram (@GraciesWayUK) – for Dying Matters Awareness Week 2026. For numerous reasons (which will all be explained in that re-cap post on May 10th!) I decided that this Awareness occasion was the right one to be the first one for Gracie’s Way to publish a Series of content in response to it. And amongst the Chat GPT response to my prompt, it actually advised that I include some words on the emotional journey of creating a Series of content. I began writing hat section in the Re-Cap article when I had the thought ‘this could be an entire blog post!’ So, here it is…
“It
is so much extra work to keep things a surprise. I need a nap just thinking
