My box of the soon-to-be-on-sale Chicken Soup for the Soul: Just Us Girls arrived today. And I'm in it...twice.
Okay, to be more accurate, I have only one story ("My Circle of Friends") that is part of the anthology, but in another story, I am one of the featured characters. That story is called "Wild Women Wielding Pens" and is written by the Chicken Soup Queen Linda O'Connell. It's a warm, well-crafted story about the critique group I'm lucky enough to belong to.
But hold your horses! Linda is not the only writer-friend who has a story published in this collection. Lisa Ricard Claro has a story about a friendship that seems odd...at first. Her tale made me think of the unlikely friendships I've formed over the years, and made me consider what I would have missed out on if I had just gravitated towards people who looked and acted like me...
A group of women who are good friends...There is nothing rowdier or more supportive. And there's nothing that enriches our lives more...
Who is one of your best friends? Share a story about them or tell why they're such a good friend. Nosey people like me want to know...
