About the author
Deborah Bouziden is a full time freelance writer, speaker, teacher, certified Journal Technique Instructor, and creative coach. Her love affair with words began at the age of six when she learned to read. Her favorite book was “The Call of the Wild” by Jack London. It was the first book she owned, given to her as a Christmas present from her grandmother. It sits on her bookshelf, and she loves it as much now, as she did then. Bouziden began writing and publishing magazine articles in 1985. She has published hundreds of articles, which have appeared in numerous magazines such as Writer’s Digest, Woman’s Day, The Writer, Personal Journaling, Byline, Lady’s Circle, ParentLife, OKC Business, and many others.
