I was born in England, but have lived in Southern California for many years. I m now retired and live in the Pacific NW in a little seaside city amongst the giant redwoods and wonderful harbor, almost at the Oregon border. My husband and I have one cat, called Midnight and she is featured in two of my latest Sci-Fi short stories. I love Science Fiction, animals, and trying to help others. I publish under Doreen Milstead as well as my own name. My photo was taken right before the coronation of QE II in the UK.
In the bustling cities of the Eastern United States during the 19th century, a young woman named Elizabeth Winslow lived a life that left her feeling incomplete. Though bright and inquisitive, with a mind that eagerly absorbed knowledge across many subjects, she couldn't shake the sense that she was a 'Jill of all trades, master of none.' Her formal education had ended too soon, leaving her yearning for deeper understanding across the breadth of her wide-ranging interests.
As Elizabeth approached her mid-twenties, her dissatisfaction grew. The narrow confines of proper Eastern society felt increasingly stifling to her free-spirited nature. She dreamed of the rugged frontier out West, where a woman might find the freedom to forge her own path. After much soul-searching, Elizabeth made a bold decision – she would seek a marriage of convenience to a Western man who could be her partner in an ongoing journey of mutual education and discovery.
One day, while browsing through the local newspaper, Elizabeth stumbled upon an advertisement that caught her eye. It was a simple yet intriguing offer: "Seeking a well-educated woman to join a gentleman in the Western frontier. Must be willing to embrace adventure and new beginnings."
Intrigued by the prospect of a fresh start and the opportunity to pursue her thirst for knowledge in new surroundings, Elizabeth decided to pen a letter in response to the advertisement. With trembling hands and a fluttering heart, she poured her thoughts onto paper, sharing her dreams, aspirations, and the yearning in her soul for something more than what city life had to offer.
