What is WhatHappensNow?

A free site. Everything you’ll read here is the result of years of emails, advice and interviews with experts, professionals and our readers (which means you…).

And since there’s a lot to life, we have 7 main categories and hundreds of articles, with more added all the time!

Americans have told us what they know about life – now we’re passing it on to help you through.

Why do you do this?

Our publisher and founder survived a beating and attempted rape. In putting the pieces of her life back together, she realized that there is no manual for life-changing events – so she decided to start one, thus WhatHappensNow.com.

What are WHN TIPs?

WHN TIPs are advice from everyone we’ve interviewed – like firefighters, police, doctors, nurses, pilots, FEMA officials, city officials, mechanics, moms, dads, social workers, hospital staff, hospice experts – you get the picture.

How do I send you my advice or a link– or just say hi?

Send us an email: ideas-info (at) WhatHappensNow.com.

How do you get all this information?

Aahhhh – this is what makes this site so cool and probably why no one else has done this – it takes a long time! We have interviewed hundreds and hundreds of experts, professionals and people who have lived through the site’s events.

We started back in 1998 and still do it today.

In a nutshell – it’s advice from Americans for Americans – so you don’t have to think “I wish I’d known that then…”

How much info do you have?

Hundreds of articles, lots of downloadable pdfs, hundreds of helpful links, countless WHN TIPS from readers and experts, good info on help and preparing – and then there are podcasts, blog posts and more. We’ve got you covered…

Are there other sites like this?

Not really – it’s a lot of work…

How many people work with you?

We have a core staff and freelancers across the country.

This doesn’t count the readers from around the world who send us their ideas and advice. After all, good wedding advice from London works here in America, too.
