One of our sister friends in RA World and blogging land–Michaela Servetus of the Me and Richard Armitage blog–lost her mother to cancer on Thursday after a long illness. Servetus shares her grief with us here. Please give her some love and visit her post to express your condolences.
Judiang of the Confessions of a Watcher blog and others have organized a donation drive (mentioned here) to honor Mrs. Servetus by making a donation that will then be donated to one of Richard Armitage’s chosen charities at his Just Giving site. Judiang has kindly provided me with that link so that I may share it with you.
I will continue to keep Servetus and her family in my thoughts and prayers. Love and Hugs!

About Gratiana Lovelace
Gratiana Lovelace is my nom de plume for my creative writing and blogging. I write romantic stories in different sub genres. The stories just tumble out of me.
My resurgence in creative writing occurred when I viewed the BBC miniseries of Elizabeth Gaskell's novel North & South in February 2010. The exquisitely talented British actor portraying the male lead John Thornton in North & South--Richard Crispin Armitage--became my unofficial muse. I have written over 50 script stories about love--some are fan fiction, but most are original stories--that I am just beginning to share with others on private writer sites, and here on my blog. And as you know, my blog here is also relatively new--since August 2011. But, I'm having fun and I hope you enjoy reading my blog essays and my stories.
Cheers! Grati ;-> upd 12/18/11
Thanks so much for your thoughts, prayers, and for supporting this effort. My family and I are very grateful to feel all this love.
