Pursuing a Dream...Making it a Reality

It has always been my dream to write a novel and become well known for my writing skills.  Over the last five years, I realized my survival was more important and it was necessary to put my passion on the back burner in order to support myself and my son.  Juggling single motherhood, a full time job and the countless other life entanglements, didn't give me a lot of time to invest in myself or my writing.  God had an amazing plan for me and I met my future husband, who has been a supportive, compassionate partner in life.

My wonderful son reignited my passion for writing.

One of my friends asked me one day why I wasn't doing writing as a side business? You are so talented.  I hadn't heard those words from anyone in so long.  Of course, professors and my former employers had told me I had talent with writing, but I had been caught up in life and raising a child.  It was never anything I thought I could ultimately utilize as a skill to help others.  I thought maybe he is right. Slowly over the course of the last few months, I began working on resumes of friends and family.

I have a web site which I am happy to finally call my own, cemeryscott.net 

Please check it out!! 

I am off and running, begging to navigate the world of twitter and tweeting.  Look for updates on our status! I also will be adding to our Facebook page as well and I am hoping to incorporate a new logo and font in the upcoming year.

I recently had a former high school classmate ask for my assistance and I finished his pieces for him.  I absolutely love the challenge of crafting a resume. It enables me to be creative and utilize my gift of writing.  

The name of my company came to me one day.  Two little people hold a huge part of my heart.  My beautiful son, James Scott and my niece and goddaughter Emery Jane.  My number one boy has been the light of my life and he is full of joy and smiles.  Emery Jane is my firstborn niece and I was bestowed the honor of being called her godmother.  She is by far the most articulate, precarious five year old I know and she melts my heart with her phone calls and Face Time calls.  My heart grows every time I hear the word, "Auntie" from her.  They are both very special to me.  So I decided upon C Emery Scott, as it would hold a special place in my heart,

So we are moving down a new life path, C Emery Scott Writing & Design and I.  We plan to do big things.

My son is my greatest joy in my life.  I am so thankful for my my family's daily encouragement to pursue my dreams with his support.  I am happy we have a silver lining to our story.  So Let's Get Started!
