Hey ladies! I'm putting together a book of stories about what makes you feel beautiful. Want to empower young girls and other women? This book is about strength, love and overcoming our insecurities. It's time that women eveywhere learn to love and accept their differences and that society doesn't dictate how we should feel about ourselves physically or otherwise.

Here’s what I’m looking for. A two-ten page story about what you have overcome or had to learn to live with that makes you feel beautiful. Whether you grew up with a not so perfect nose, an unsightly scar, dealing with cancer and the loss of your breasts or maybe a relative who made you feel unpretty. I want stories that are personal and motivational. You may still be learning to accept your insecurities, and are willing to share the pain you’ve suffered and what you have done or are still doing in order to make you feel wonderful. The stigmas that society puts on us, with all of the magazine ads and television shows out there have made women feel less than, if they aren’t a size 2. Aim to share what you have overcome and why you feel beautiful. What does the word beautiful mean to you? This book is being put together to motivate other women and young girls to believe they are beautiful, especially because of their differences. I’m hoping to choose twenty stories by early December. Please contact me if you want to discuss questions or run a few ideas by me. Happy writing and I hope to hear from you mailto:soon!chichicshindigs@yahoo.com
