- About Me:
- Background:
The eldest of five children, Yvonne was born May 17, 1951 in Atlanta, Georgia. Raised in East Point, Georgia, she moved to Jackson County, Ga. until 2006 then moved to Port St. Lucie, Florida where she currently makes her home.
Licensed bounty hunter for the state of Georgia.
Education:
After a 34 year absence, returned to college in 2004. Graduated with honors in Criminal Justice with an Associate’s degree from Lanier Technical College in 2006.
Awards:
Nominated for the prestigious GOAL award in 2005 which encompasses all of the technical colleges. This award is based not only on excellence in academics but also leadership, positive attitude and the willingness to excel in one’s major.
Affiliations:
Beta Sigma Phi Sorority
The Dream:
Since learning to write at the age of five, Yvonne has wanted to be an author. She wrote her first novel Stan’s Story beginning in 1974 and completed it in 2006. Publication seemed impossible as rejections grew to 10 years. Determined, she continued adding to the story until her dream came true in 2006.
The Inspiration:
Yvonne’s brother Stan has been her inspiration and hero in every facet of her life. He was stricken with Encephalitis at the tender age of nine months. He has defied every roadblock placed in his way and has been the driving force in every one of her accomplishments. He is the one who taught her never to give up
The Author:
Yvonne is currently the author of several novels, including:
Stan’s Story- the true story of her brother’s accomplishments, it has been compared to the style of Capote, and is currently being rewritten with new information for re-release.
Tangled Minds - a riveting story about a young girl’s bad decision and how it taints everyone’s life around her yet still manages to show that hope is always possible. This novel has been compared to the writing of Steinbeck and is currently being written as a screenplay.
Brilliant Insanity - to be released in July 2008.
Silent Scream - to be released in fall of 2008.
Yvonne’s Philosophy in Life - “Pay it Forward”:
“In this life we all have been helped by others to attain our dreams and goals. We cannot pay it back but what we can do is ‘pay it forward’. It is a simple concept. By helping three people, those three people help three more people and soon that becomes nine. Those nine people each help three more people and the giving continues. As you see, it is the power of three. Our giving comes back to us ten-fold. So one could say it is three to the power of ten. We all started out with nothing. By using this philosophy we can help one another and share the goodness of life’s wealth.”
Speaking Engagements:
Yvonne is an accomplished motivational speaker and is available for speaking engagements. Previous engagements include:
April 2008 at IRCC - “How to Sell One’s Self in the Business World” presentation to the student body.

THE DEMONS CALLED "ILLUMINATI"
TRAINED IN DARK OF SATANS WOMB,
THE ILLUMINATE ONES EXIT THEIR TOMB
TO SEAL THE FATE OF MODERN MAN,
TO TORTURE SOULS FOR THE FALLEN CLAN
EVIL POWERS CONTROLING US,
WE SCREAM FOR MERCY THROUGH THE DUST
THE WICKED REPTILES OF BIBLICAL DAYS
CONSUME OUR SOULS IN VIOLENT WAYS
THE RICH AND POWERFUL… Continue

SILENCE
THE GHOSTLY SILENCE OF A GIRL
AWAITING DEATH OR LIFE
THE PAINFUL MEMORY SHE MUST BARE
OF MURDER BY A KNIFE
SHE WAITS FOR HIM TO WAKE
HIS BODY STILL AND COLD
HER FATHER COMES TO BURY HIM
AND PUNISH HER WICKED SOUL
SHE HOLDS THE SHAME HER FATHER SAYS
FOR LOVING ONE SO YOUNG… Continue

A WASTELAND WITH NO END
HOW BITTER COLD, THIS WINTER TOLD THE YEAR 2009
FOR SOME WHO LIKE THE SNOWY WHITE INDEED IT WAS DIVINE
BUT STORIES OF THE EVIL THAT FILLS THE WORLD TODAY

THESE THINGS I TELL YOU ARE THE TRUTH SOME DAY YOU SOON SHALL SE… Continue

GOTHIC HORROR
HOW QUIET THE FACE OF GOTHIC HORROR
WHERE NO ONE HEARS THE SCREAMS
OF LIFE THATS SHATTERED IN AN INSTANT
THE DEADLY NIGHTMARE OF DREAMS
THOUGH NO ONE SEES THE PAIN INSIDE
THIS FACE THATS ALL BUT DIED
SHE IS THE LONLEY REPLICA
OF A LIFE THATS GONE A RYE
SO SADLY WE MUST LOOK ON… Continue

THE 25TH
IN THE COLD OF WINTERS NIGHT
THE ANGELS LAND TO END THEIR FIGHT
IT'S ONE OF EVIL AND OF GOOD
IT'S ONE THE ANGELS UNDERSTOOD
ON THIS NIGHT BOTH SIDES REST
FOR IT IS A NIGHT OF NO CONTEST
ANGELS HIGH WILL LIGHT THE STARS
THE FALLEN ONES WILL BARE THEIR SCARS
THIS IS THE NIGHT THAT WE HAVE KNOWN
TO BE THE NIGHT THAT TIME HAS SHOWN
THE NIGHT THAT POWER, STRENGTH, AND HEART
FOREVER SPLIT ONE WORLD APART
TAKING TIME TO REST AND SLEEP
KNOWING ONE WILL GUIDE THEIR FEET
GOOD OR BAD THE TIME OF GIFTS
WE LAY ARMS DOWN ON THE 25TH
