Deborah Fruchey was born in California over 50 years ago. Her first novel, The Unwilling Heiress, was chosen as a Best Book by the American Bookseller's Association in 1987. She has attended several colleges just for fun, never earning a degree, and has worked at everything from international banking to selling light bulbs over the phone.
In 2005 Deborah married musician Robert Hamaker, and settled in as a full time author. She occasionally does vocals for her husband's meditation music. She also speaks for the National Alliance of Mental Illness in their In Our Own Voice program, as a result of her own experience with Bipolar Disorder.
Deborah no longer understands why she ever bothered with anything besides writing.
My most impossible ambition has always been to understand human nature. So when I discovered poetry at 17, it naturally evolved into a way to express my puzzling findings. Granted that it is often myself I end up studying (the easiest and nearest subject), the focus has always been to observe and report the quaint, illogical, stubborn and silly things we continually do. The journey has included explorations into odd corners: child abuse, addiction, mental illness, religious fanaticism, and a whole host of other issues that have come up over the years. This book contains 30 years of these observations, originally spread out in 8 chapbooks, plus some bonus material that has never appeared anywhere. Here is the world seen through the lens of a peculiar and unexpected life.
