About Me
Welcome to my corner of the internet! My name is Edwina Hoyle, but feel free to call me Eddy. I live in the beautiful Lowcountry of South Carolina with my husband, Renny, and our lovable pooch, Gizmo. I’m an accomplished writer and I pride myself on being a wordsmith. Over the years I’ve had poetry and essays published, and I‘ve worked as a journalist, a freelance writer and editor.
I grew up in McKeesport, Pennsylvania -- the oldest of six kids. I have a twin sister, Rowena, lovingly known as the "good twin." My dad was a carpenter who taught me to measure twice and cut once. In other words, make sure it's right...especially when writing!
I've just completed a six-year journey to publish my debut novel. Your feedback and encouragement is welcome.

Broken Women
A Story of Rejection, Redemption and Resilience
Spanning generations, Broken Women is a powerful saga of resilience, love, and the relentless pursuit of healing in the face of unimaginable trauma.
Born into poverty and oppression in 19th century Lithuania, Ona’s life is marked by a series of devastating losses and abuses that threaten to shatter her spirit. Yet, through each heartbreak, she discovers reserves of strength she never knew she possessed. From the abandoned child, to the abused woman, to the anguished mother, Ona’s journey is a testament to the indomitable power of the human soul.
Her daughter, Marita, inherits this resilience, but also the scars of her mother’s torment. As Marita navigates her own path through love, loss, and the search for belonging, she must confront the ghosts of the past in order to forge a future of her own making.
Broken Women is a sweeping, multi-generational tale that explores the depths of human suffering and the transformative possibilities of forgiveness. Through these unforgettable characters, readers will be captivated by a story of survival that cuts to the core of the female experience.

Words are miraculous building blocks. Strung together in myriad ways, they express love or hate, our ideas and visions, our wishes, dreams and passions. They are used to nurture, teach, comfort and tell stories. Words allow us to analyze, express opinions, and debate.
I love words.
