Now living in the desert southwest, Antrim woman, Yvonne Watterson, uses her personal blog, Considering the Lilies and Lessons from the Field, to shares her perspective on life as an emigrant, a mother, a breast cancer patient, and a widow. Seamus Heaney, Van Morrison, Bob Dylan, and Tom Petty make frequent appearances as she searches for the right word to capture the diasporic experience for Irish readers - at home and away. Poignant and powerful, her writings on Mother's Day and Father's Day from far away, have been reprinted by the Irish Times
