Annie Kagan, 9/10/17 - The Afterlife of Billy Fingers

“To be a pearl maker, your oyster needs a good strong shell to protect you from a hundred million irritants in your environment. Your shell helps you tell one grain of sand from the other. You know which one can become a pearl and which one isn't worth the irritation.” - Annie Kagan, The Afterlife of Billy Fingers: How My Bad-Boy Brother Proved to Me There's Life After Death 


Wendy's Coffeehouse interview with Annie Kagan - The Afterlife of Billy Fingers (He's got a new POV about life in the hereafter. Annie started taking notes from the first moment he checked back in.)

Annie Kagan, Author, The Afterlife of Billy Fingers has had tremendous success with her book on life after death. Here's just one example of the glowing recommendations she's received. --

Dannion Brinkley (who woke up in the morgue after being struck by lightning) is the bestselling author of Saved by the Light:  "The Afterlife of Billy Fingers reaffirms the NDEs experiences of the light and love I encountered on the other side. It's an engaging account of the transformation of the spirit and I highly recommend."


Annie had been taking a break from media when I requested an interview but the timing was great so we had a chance to recap all that has happened since she started hearing from her deceased brother. No matter what it sounds like now, after a few years of integrating and becoming more comfortable with the process and confident in the connection, the initial event still required a significant mind shift.

From personal experience, there are a lot of mixed emotions involving wonder, curiosity, euphoria, questioning one's sanity, to name a few. But the continuity and the routine, combined with information so personal that only the person who shared those moments with you could really provide the intimate details, helps the relationship gel. Everything changes.

That's what happened. Everything changed when Annie's brother checked back in to report on his new surroundings. His sense of humor is intact. Here's the book promo for Annie's Bestseller -



Does she still hear from Billy? Yes.

From a 2013 interview with Annie - Hamptons Neighbor:

"Billy has reminded me that we are literally made of stars, that the intelligence that runs the Universe is available to us. The same intelligence that breathes our breath and heals our wounds and beats in our hearts also gives birth to stars and galaxies. As Billy says, when you imagine the infinite, you're touched by the infinite itself."

- For those who would die, there is life.

For those who would dream, there is reality. 

For those who would hope, there is knowledge. 

For those who would grow, there is eternity. -
