I had to regroup because of my mother being ill and did nothing with RWA for a while.<BR/><BR/>Then I started with an online writing group which basically had me in the hot seat doing much of what I'd done for RWA in the past. <BR/><BR/>This year I am conference chair and president. It will be my last year as well volunteering.<BR/><BR/>And that's okay. Voluteering has a way of jump starting ones career, no matter what someone says, they will remember they sat next to you. I still have friends from my time on the RWA national board and while don't use those contacts a lot, I do ask their opinion because they were there the years I weren't.<BR/><BR/>Whether you are a career volunteer or not, you can always learn or get something from the experience.<BR/><BR/>LynnLynn Crainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17563978872099232823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3294899951619699125.post-85154920837111333802009-02-01T11:55:00.000-08:002009-02-01T11:55:00.000-08:00Stephani, I'm thinking yes to the ice cream run. ...Stephani, I'm thinking yes to the ice cream run.

After all, if you don't nourish yourself you will not have the strength to deal with life's demands incluidng those things most important to you. Go for it! I've been wanting a life coach ever since I participated in a seminar given by Cheryl Richardson, she was awesome! Good luck! <BR/>ErinErin Sinclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09147306358741643678noreply@blogger.com
