Deborah Jean White spent her childhood in Belfast, Northern Ireland making up stories inside her head.
She graduated from Stranmillis College in 1996. Her dream of becoming a teacher became true. Living in Bangor, Co. Down, by the sea, she began to make notes within her many notebooks of her experiences and these notes became novels.
In 2019 Deborah started to write a series of books called The Fairy Journals, placing her fairy folk in the beautiful setting of Crawfordsburn Country Park, in Northern Ireland. Her magical tale turned into a series and she is presently working on her fourth book in the series; filled with fairies and gnomes.
In 2020 Deborah sat down and decided to write her first YA book - Seen and Not Heard. Seen and Not Heard is a suspense/ thriller novel with 91000 words. A sentient house comes to believe children should be seen and not heard. Molly Jolliff must save the children the house has rendered silent. All her books require a little bit of magic and yes magic appears in her adult book too. In August 2021 her book was published and now is available on Amazon!
These days Deborah can be found working 3 days a week with 8 and 9 year olds AND writing the other four days. She loves to spend time with her daughter, Abigail and her dog, Poppy. She owns a caravan and loves to play the ukulele. She aims to write 1,500 words a day and she enjoys doing this in the mornings when the birds begin to sing or within a coffee shop in Bangor, Co.Down or Newtownards.
