In 2009, he released a PostSecretbook focusing on religion and spirituality, PostSecret: Confessions on Life, Death, and God which reached #1 on theNew York Times best-seller list. In 2006, his website www.PostSecret.com (which receives over 3 million visitors each month) was awarded six weblog awards including “Best American Blog” and “Blog of the Year.” His traveling exhibition of PostSecret cards was called by the Washington Post, “One of the five best art shows in 2005.”
