Lynn Isenberg’s THE FUNERAL PLANNER: Resurrects as Special Digital Freemium Edition

Lynn Isenberg’s THE FUNERAL PLANNER, the entrepreneurial romantic comedy trilogy novel series has just been released as a ‘freemium edition’ now through August 17, 2014, exclusively on Wattpad at www.wattpad.com/lynnisenberg.  This edition launches at a perfect time, in tandem with ABC’s new series “Resurrection” and on the heels of Jane Fonda’s blog titled “Crying” where she reflects on her own personal funeral planning wishes. “Fonda’s sentiments are a timely reflection to important themes inside The Funeral Planner Trilogy Novels, with respect to planning how we want to be remembered,” explains Isenberg.

Lynn Isenberg’s The Funeral Planner’s Special Edition is part of the digital publishing world that is ever-changing with new technologies and formats, and Isenberg is embracing this new platform. Readers can now enjoy reading, sharing, commenting, casting, and voting on Lynn Isenberg’s The Funeral Planner at the popular social reading platform Wattpad. Fans can find the entire trilogy at http://lynnisenberg.com  including the second and third installments The Funeral Planner Goes to Washington and The Funeral Planner Goes Global.

When Wattpad offered Isenberg the opportunity to feature her title for 7 months online, on-mobile, and on-tablet to their community of 20+ million monthly unique avid readers worldwide, she agreed. Lynn Isenberg’s The Funeral Planner Trilogy Novels are meant to open the lid and inspire the conversation of how we want to be remembered. Isenberg added, “Once you approach the topic with loved ones, greater intimacy and understanding end up enhancing relationships and family ties. It’s in these quiet moments of reflection on the fast-forward into the rearview mirror that inspire change and celebration of the present.”

In order to produce a special digital edition for Wattpad users, Isenberg collected the support of various companies reflected inside her trilogy about ‘a female entrepreneur and her entourage of event planners in dark clothes who bring life to a dead business with unique and personal life celebrations’. Supporters of her special freemium edition include the Dignity Memorial ® Network, Legacy.com, 1800Flowers.com, LuxuryLink.com, Cohen Media Group’s  new documentary “Mademoiselle C,” Vianel Studios, StyleShack.com, investment company ThriveFP, and CirtexHosting.com, which hosts Isenberg’s www.TheTributeNetwork.com, the real life social media network inspired by the plot inside the novel, and the novel-inspired Lights Out Enterprises.
