Eileen Breedlove

Born in 1953, Eileen is the mother of three children, two of whom have served in the military, including active service in Bosnia. She and her husband, Guy, married in 1992 after Eileen found the strength to break free from an abusive 17 year marriage in 1988.
Guy has been her best friend, unconditional lover and a true father to her children. With her family’s encouragement, Eileen found the ability to express and record her emotions in her writings. After her sister Linda introduced her to the members of IWVPA, she formed strong friendships and bonds which have provided her with a greater awareness of her talent and an outlet that enables her to share her writings.
Eileen is aware of the healing nature of writing and hopes that something she has written may assist somebody in their journey through life. This is her motivation and inspiration for writing.
