New Book, “What Widows Want”, now available for Friends and Families of Widows

Oct. 31, 2011 - PRLog -- Phoenix, AZ -  An engaging and informative new book, “What Widows Want”, by author Paula Walters Stone has just been released. It is both a personal story about the author’s own struggles and success after becoming a widow as well as a guidebook of practical advice and tips for the friends and families of widows.

“I wrote this book,” explains Ms. Stone, “not necessarily for widows, but as a practical ‘how to’ guide for their friends and family. Most people don’t know what to say to a recently widowed friend or family member or what they can do to help them in their time of need. This book provides helpful advice and a checklist of tasks and activities that everyone can use to help ‘share the load’ for their loved one.”

“What Widows Want” includes insights gained from personal interviews and a nationwide survey of widows who openly shared their own stories so that others might benefit from their experiences.

This new book is available for purchase in both paperback and digital versions at the author’s website, http://www.WhatWidowsWant.com.
