Yvonne Lovejoy Scribbler

  A few years ago I became curious about my heritage. History had become more interesting to me and one day it hit me that I really didn't know anything about my family history.  I found out things I never knew about my family. Everything from being a Mayflower passenger descendant to having a grandmother who was an accused witch. The best part of these discoveries is that their family is well documented.  The rest of the family, not so much. Once I made it back a few generations, the wheels fell off. I had a grandpa, great uncle, great-grandpa, and cousin all named Robert Henry. Most of them married a woman named Mary. They immigrated from Scotland where there were hundreds more of this named pair. Death certificates are major if you can find them.  I wrote  Dear Grandmas  because I could not think of any women who could be more inspirational than my foremothers. Each of their stories is unique and heartwarming. Their struggles and triumphs are the reason I'm here. I want them

       Why scribbler? Why not an author or even a writer page?  I feel strongly about writing but I don't think I'm quite deserving of the titles of author or writer just yet.  A little about me-      I'm currently 54 and working to get started on  the writing career I have literally dreamed about since childhood. I've always known that writing should be my career but I enjoy it so much, I really felt undeserving of having such a pleasurable career.      Much has changed for me in recent years.  Health issues have prevented me from working outside the home. Last year my husband passed away unexpectedly. I feel like this is the time to give my all to do what I love.     Time is shorter than I think and not following through could be one of my biggest regrets.                                                                                                     Much Love,                                                                                                        

This is a selection of my most recent work to show what I've been writing lately. Hopefully, this will show progress in confidence and skill as I get back into writing after a very long break. Plutarch: The Original Influencer Worx Works Declutter and Organize Pisces: Dreaming of Reality I hope to continue adding to this list and that my work will show a true progression.
