    Title: S2EP58, Finding The Way To Forgive, Debut Novel, Something Better with Diane Parrish What a delightful conversation with fellow Westporter, Diane Parrish who launched her first book this week. Her novel, Something Better, is a book you can't put down. I read it a few months ago and I am still thinking about it. And that says something because I usually can't even remember what books I have just read. We talk about how Diane went about conceiving and nurturing her book. Anyone wanting to write/publish a book will find inspiration and motivation to hear about Diane's process. I got to talk about my process and forgive myself for what happened. Forgiveness is the theme of Diane's book so it was perfect. Something Better will leave you thinking, wondering, and perhaps even healing your own life's disappointments and grudges. Grab a copy wherever books are sold. Thank you again, Diane, for your wonderful prose and this fabulous gift to the world.

    Title: S2EP53, Finding the Strength to Power Through and Live Fully in This Life She Didn't Choose with Becky Galli I can not stop crying. I am so moved by my conversation with Becky Galli. "Some would say life has not been kind to me," she says in the introduction of her second book, "morning fuel." At age 20, I lost my seventeen year old brother. Two of my four children had special needs. One of my two sons died at age fifteen. And at 38, nine days after my divorce was finalized, I was paralyzed by transverse myelitis, a rare inflammation of the spinal cord that affects one in a million.” How does Becky go on? I wonder about that myself. But after reading her first book, "rethinking possible," I can see where she gets her strength. Her family, her upbringing, her friends, her spirituality, her faith, her journalling and her therapy. Becky will inspire all of us to live life to the fullest, no matter what circumstances we have. Becky has so many life lessons that she shares with all of us through her column, "From Where I Sit," her books, her Thoughtful Thursdays, and our conversation. Becky wants us all to "Let Our Love Be Larger." You can find Becky's resources at BeckyGalli.com Subscribe and be a part of her email list and let's all live life more fully. Her handle is @chairwriter Note to listeners: For some reason there was an echo when I talked in the second half. I don’t know why. But it’s there. My apologies ahead of time. #wheelchair #BeckyGalli #chairwriter #paraplegic #transversemyelitis #specialneeds #deathofabrother #deathofachild #pastor #writer #author #acceptance #hardlife #resources #support #inspiration #miscarriage #pastorchildren #rethinkingpossible #morningfuel #thegettingrealwithhilaryshow #paralysis #morninginspiration

    Title: S2EP52, The Wisdom of the Willows by Nancy Chadwick Nancy Chadwick always wanted to write mini-stories about characters. She went into advertising, but never was able to achieve her goal. She got a job in banking which also did not fulfill her dream. After getting married, her husband told her to take the summer off from her unsatisfying job. She started writing and never went back to work. She started with essays and after 15 years, published her first memoir, Underneath the Birch Tree. Inspired by the sun streaming down on a river one day, Nancy ventured into fiction writing. She wrote some essays and has recently published The Wisdom of the Willow. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about the Dowlings, their daughters, and the wisdom shared by Margaret under the willow tree. Thank you, Nancy, for your appreciation of nature and for passing on your life lessons so we can all relate and learn from you. Bio: Nancy Chadwick grew up in a northern suburb of Chicago. She got her first job at Leo Burnett advertising agency in Chicago. Noted as one of 2024's Most Anticipated Books by the Chicago Review of Books, the forthcoming debut novel The Wisdom of the Willow (She Writes Press, May 7, 2024) is a metaphorically rich and reflective tale of sisterhood and strength—a story of hope and healing, of the choices that shape our lives, and the challenges we all face as we seek to find our places in the world. Please consider a book review, author interview or round-up: as the story takes place from Memorial Day to Labor Day, in the summer of 1998, it’s a perfect Summer Read suggestion. Print ARCs are available, or request a digital ARC on NetGalley. In their early forties, the four Dowling sisters, Debra, Rose, Linney and Charlotte, find themselves faced with big changes in work and relationships that will define their lives. Meanwhile, their terminally ill mother, Margaret, is struggling with whether she has done enough to help her daughters find their way in life, and calls them all to the family home to reunite one last time under the willow tree that she and her husband planted as a symbol of home, belonging, and growth when they began their family in the north suburbs of Chicago.
