Fanon:Margaret Plumb: Difference between revisions

Margaret penned her most financially successful books during this time, as her skill level allowed her to write longer books in different genres. She dabbled in romance with ''The Scrapbook'', a novel she later said she "hated"; however, the money she earned from it made her financially secure for the first time in her life. With this newfound wealth she was able to purchase the bookstore at which she worked during her teens, and she also devoted herself fully to writing. She wrote and researched a history of her family, the Plumbs, through three generations in Sunset Valley; and finally she wrote a masterpiece novel, ''The Longest Shadow''. She began writing an autobiography but never completed it.  Margaret died in the bathroom of her brother's house, holding a book in her hand. She was 95 days old. In her will she surprised everyone by leaving her entire fortune to her half-brother [[Fanon:Nathan Jolina-Plumb|Nathan]]'s daughter, her then-teenaged niece, [[Fanon:Savannah Plumb|Savannah]], who later honored her by naming her first-born [[Fanon:Sage Cheesman|daughter]] after her. Two of her great-nieces, [[Fanon:Sierra Cheesman|Sierra]] and [[Fanon:Kaydence Westley-Plumb|Kaydence]], have followed behind her by publishing science fiction novels of their own.
