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.

I am a writer, mother and widow and I lost my husband to cancer almost four years ago. I have taken an active, empowering stance in speaking about a widow's journey and grief, something that is not always comfortable or easy to talk about in today's society of quick fixes and instant gratification.
To that end I have my book chronicling my journey from despair and grief to the enlightenment of a new life, which will be available June 2008.
