AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR AND EDITOR

Deborah Halverson, award-winning author and editor

Deborah Halverson edited children's books for ten years—until she climbed over the desk and tried out the author's chair on the other side. Now she is an award-winning author of books for young readers, including the teen novels HONK IF YOU HATE ME and BIG MOUTH and the forthcoming WRITING YOUNG ADULT FICTION FOR DUMMIES (June 2011). Armed with a master's degree in American literature and a fascination with pop culture, she sculpts stories from extreme events and places—tattoo parlors, fast-food joints, and, most extreme of all, high schools. Deborah is also the founder of the writers' advice website Dear-Editor.com. She lives with her husband and triplet sons in San Diego, California.
