About the author
April Crawford is described in her own books as a deep-trance psychic medium, and her work Parting Notes: A Connection With the Afterlife, published by 1st Book Library, presents itself as a record of communications from people who have died, relayed through Crawford in trance and addressing both their experiences of death and accounts of the afterlife. The book is structured around individual accounts rather than a single narrative, framed as first-person testimony from the deceased. It belongs to the mediumship and afterlife-communication genre within popular spiritual publishing, aimed at readers already interested in accounts of trance mediumship rather than at readers seeking a critical or historical treatment of the subject.
