Who is Author Terri D

---

I have been writing for as long as I can remember.  As a little girl I wrote in my diary to record my feelings.  As a young woman my diaries became journals and writing was a way to express myself and record my feeling about things happening around me.  I still journal to this day.  In 2011 I published my first book , Yesterday's Lies which was the beginning of my three part series based on a character named Toni.  Many of my readers fell in love with Toni and I wrote a two part eBook series to provide more background for my readers about Toni's life.  Me and Mr. Right Now and Me and Mr. Wrong. 

My most recent publication is a collaboration project with a brand new author, Julie Bellatrix.  Julie and I have written a thought provoking, emotional and exciting therapy drama.  The two main characters are Joy, a therapist who you may remember was a teenager in my original series.  Joy is all grown up now and she is still dealing with the demons of her past while helping others to work through their own issues. Love, Lies and Fight is about how Joy and one her her clients Valerie end up on a journey towards healing together.

My most personal publication is a memoir titled Passport Wife and it provides a behind the scenes look at my journey from IT Director living in the United States to my time of being retired and married to a Dominican Man and living in the Dominican Republic.   

My blog, random thoughts of Author Terri D was started as a way to connect to my readers on a more personal level.  I wanted to entertain, inspire and empower others through my real life experiences.  After getting married and moving to the Dominican Republic I started a Dominican Housewife Chronicles series on my blog to document and share my experiences.  You can read my blog here on my website from the homepage or by following this link:

I also enjoy doing as much as I can to give back and to help others.  I decided to start a non profit in 2018 to help expectant mothers in need.  A blessing For You provides blessing baskets to new mom's and helps connect them to other community resources.

I am also a Certified Life Coach and have published three journaling books which I use as one of the tools with my life coaching clients. Learn more about this on my life coaching page titled Connecting the Dots.
