Griefcase is a safe place for individuals going through the grief process. At Griefcase, mourners receive support and access to helpful information.
I quit the day job to follow my passion. At this time, I am writing a memoir, fulfilling a promise to write a book. You can learn more about my writing journey at www.bookorbust.blogspot.com
I am a widow and after the death of my husband more than five years ago, I turned to the internet for support. There was nothing out there at the time, so I invented Griefcase honoring famous widows and offering a daily quote for inspiration and silly joke for comic relief. Through Griefcase, and the many followers who wrote thanking me for blogging, I shared how to turn an upside smile right side up again.
I created this blog shortly after the death of my husband, Edward Louis Sclier, who died in May 2004.
Griefcase blog received so many visitors it has morphed into a real website, www.griefcase.net
At this time, through the new website, I am working currently on a cafe’ which sells books through Amazon.com. Soon, I will have other offerings, as well. Fingers crossed, time will tell how successful it will be.
Any individual going through the grief process is welcome at Griefcase. It doesn’t have to be a widow. I receive queries from parents who have lost young children, moms who have lost a son or daughter in the war, a daughter who lost her mom and was upset over seeing her father dating again–I once receved an email from a woman who had lost her pet. At Griefcase, ALL persons wondering what the heck do I d now that He/She/Fido/Pluto o longer by their side are welcome to share their story in safety.
Not as much as I once did. Writing my book sucks up a lot of my time. But, I am constantly receiving emails from mourners and I am available by email direct at all times filling requests for my free ebook, “Treasury of Quotations.”
I cry not for the individual going through the grief process, but with him or her. Because, I am a widow, and where they are now, I once was. And I want all mourners to know that if I can get through the grief process, so can they.
Give useful information, some golden nugget of information that your reader can take away with them to remember, and perhaps apply to their own life. Well, you know, food for thought.
