In search of widows: author profile of Cathleen Murphy Shaffer

We're pleased to introduce you today to author Cathleen Murphy Shaffer.

Shaffer went in search of widows who could relate to her thinking, actions and observations on becoming a widow.

She found plenty of like-minded women who realized they hadn't lost their sanity at all. Widowhood was their new normal and they had every right to act a little crazy.

Shaffer was a Chicago newspaper journalist for 15 years, has written travel articles for Huffington Post, Gadling Travel Site and AOL Travel News among others. She has written the popular blog; newsy1blog.com for the past four years and her latest blog http://www.widowslikeme.com spawned her first published e-article, Widows Like Me.

She is a freelance writer that is based in Chicago and travels the southwest and Mexico in an RV, only stopping to eat, drink, take pictures and of course, write.
