About
Elaine Williams
After 20 years of marriage, Elaine Williams lost her husband to cancer—leaving her widowed in her 40s and her three boys fatherless. For the last few years since Joe’s death, she has been examining the effects of this loss on her own family, and of the effect this kind of loss has on other families. Joe’s illness moved Elaine to begin looking at alternative healing, holistic medicine, healthy organic diets, yoga, and Green lifestyles. With a lifelong interest in writing, Elaine has published romance with Silhouette books and poetry and fiction in various small magazines. She is an active member of both the Women Writers Guild and Romance Writers of America (one of her newsletters for RWA won an award two years in a row). A serial entrepreneur, Elaine almost always has one or more businesses going. Currently, she owns a landscaping company and a book publishing company, On Wings Press. Her many other interests include quilting, outdoor activities from hiking to skiing to kayaking, training and riding horses, animal science, graphic design, painting in watercolor, volunteering in her community, and living life to its fullest. Elaine lives in the Catskill Mountains of New York with her three boys.
Have a nice day !

Hi Elaine. My mother lost my father to cancer when she was 56 after 34 years of marriage. I ended up writing a resource guide for adults with a newly widowed parent. I wanted to let you know about my Web site and the community I am trying to build to help other people in our situations- are you in PMA? I have also been a member of Georgia Romance Writers.

Hi Jamieson: I checked out your website, and what a wonderful resource! My book “A Journey Well Taken: Life After Loss” just became available this week at online bookstores, and also through my website. I’m not currently in PMA, but I am an RWA member for many years, former newsletter editor of Outreach and a NY Chapter, belong to several RWA chapters, NJ, currently still a PASIC member, scriptscene, etc. I’ll post your link on my blog and my website grief links page. elaine
