Hi Women Writers,

Welcome to all the new members and subscribers this week! I hope you enjoy this week’s interview with Valerie Connelly. She has been a NAWW Member for years and is such an inspiring woman writer. Enjoy!

Holiday Advice:
As you head into the holidays, remember to take care of yourself and not volunteer too much. Don’t be afraid to say “no”. I noticed a long time ago that my children benefited way more from mommy being calmer than they did if I spent all my time volunteering on their behalf at school all day during the holidays. :) Just my two cents for those of you who are already feeling the strain. Is it just me or has my generation gone a little crazy with the amount of activities we plan for our kids? And even if you don’t have kids—make sure you read this week’s article—How To Eliminate Stress by Eliminating Responsibilities. It is a great reminder that we all have choices on how we live our days.

Loving this book:
I bought Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips by Kris Carr earlier this week and I am really empowered by it. Even if cancer isn’t touching your life directly at this time, you will be moved in a positive way by this book and how she is living her life. She has me thinking throughout the book that I want to live this way right now… I don’t need to wait for a reason to be healthier. I want to treat my body better today and I want to treasure friendships and family in a more substancial way—today. I love her humor too—I love women who aren’t afraid to be bold and say what they are thinking. :)

Member of the Week: Valerie Connelly

Q: When did you realize you wanted to be a writer?

A: As a kid, I made up my own Janice Mann mysteries, inspired by Nancy Drew of course. But my mother always told us stories as kids, for me while getting my hair washed in the sink — which I really didn’t like much. Her Little Reddy Airplane stories got me through the beauty shop moments of my early childhood, and spawned the writer and the traveler in me. Reddy Airplane flew to far away places, taking his family with him on adventures all around the world. I think now that my mother wanted to go to all these places, but as a stay-at-home mom in suburbia in the fifties, stories were the best she could do.

Feeling stressed lately? Too many to-do’s on your to-do list? If you are doing too much for too many people, you must eliminate some of the stress in your life.
