Dawn Sloan Downes is a professional freelance writer. Southern by the grace of God, she feels blessed to be married to a gifted songwriter named Scott Downes and mother to two beautiful sons who amaze her each day with their wit, charm, and joy for life. Dawn writes because she doesn't know how not to write. She has been writing Belle of the Blog for almost eight years now. The more she writes, the more she learns about this world and all the wonder it offers. This blog, like Life, is full of joy and heartache, and hopefully we all learn a little something on our journey through it.
Dawn writes from the heart and offers an honest picture of motherhood and marriage. Never one to sugarcoat or play Pollyanna, she lays it all out there in the hope that sharing her trials and challenges, triumphs and successes, she can inspire other women who are deep in the trenches with her.
Welcome to Belle of the Blog. Feel free to e-mail Dawn with any of your questions or comments.
