DK shares how it was her HS senior year English teacher and her profound technique for interpreting great works of literature that planted the seed initially to begin dabbling in writing. It is undoubtedly  her devout encouragement in pursuing a career in creative writing and a passion for storytelling.

some special wordS from Deborah kirsten 

This has been many years in the making, my blog. Like so many before 2020 I had plans laid out to put into action the launch of a blog. Not quite sure where to start or what to write about once again it was placed on the back burner. Soon after all plans were put on hold due to a life altering experience, a pandemic. I never thought I see such a blatant display of biological demise in my lifetime, but I did and it happened altering life for every single person on the planet. Like everyone else plans where cancelled, jobs lost and life was lost.  

For me my job was clear making sure my son was understanding virtual learning, passing and graduate 8th grade, No small task by far. Then freshman year started and still virtual learning, the single most difficult year for my child but we got through it and that day came where kids could return full time to school. Almost two years on hold I faced the same issue what to write about. I soon realized like everyone else I was struggling to find my footing in a post pandemic society. Realizing I had twenty plus years of knowledge in a diverse area and if I compact them together not only can I help others I am etching out a path for myself as well.

As I continue to blog daily on my knowledge of finance, saving for the future, ways to optimize debt, ways to get out of debt, women in business, B2B, Brand building, Social and Digital Marketing for your business, creative ways to market your business, Marketing optimizer and maximizing, planning for retirement, building equity and how to keep it. Another passion of mine is the Stock market and stocks as a whole. Financial topics that impact Americans, women, and businesses. I have devoted my blog to educating others on maximizing all aspects of your business and finances with lifestyle intertwined and a page devoted to specific editorial content once a week. Along with a weekly update on your author, DK Cucko.
