The Boutique by Dee Blick
The Boutique "Bestselling author, Dee Blick has found her home in storytelling. The Boutique is a brilliant book, rich with fascinating narratives, believable and complex personalities and with grand finales you'd be hard pushed to guess." Chris Day, founder AuthorCraft and Filament Publishing."This book of short stories took me out of my usual sphere of reading material and into a world closer to real life and the lives of authentic characters"
"The stories are short but are never wanting - characters are well-rounded and genuine, situations are not 'roses around the cottage, chocolate-box perfection, they are gritty, real and poignant. I connected with every single one of Ms Blick's people and understood each setting and storyline"
"Ms Blick is one of those naturally gifted storytellers that a reader would feel privileged to have found.
"I will be looking for the next book from this author. I hope I won't have to wait too long."
Dee has been a creative writer and avid storyteller from just eight years old. Her fascination with words, woven into stories continued at secondary school. Influenced by the careers' advisor telling her she should write stories for a living, she embarked on a career in marketing. She has spent the last 41 years merrily creating copy for her clients. During this time, Dee has also enjoyed training people in the art of producing compelling and engaging content, winning several awards for her work along the way. She then turned to authoring books. Dee really found her feet with her second book which became an international best-seller, leading to a publishing deal in China. Global publisher, Wiley, produced her third book and in the last few years she has picked up a couple of reader awards for two of her books.
When it comes to putting pen to paper, creative writing and storytelling remain Dee's first love. She now has more time on her hands to write without interruption and so has penned her first fiction book, The Boutique. Will there be a sequel? It depends on what readers say!
Born in Leeds, in the North of England, Dee lives in West Sussex with her husband, a mere stone's throw from her two married sons. She has a gorgeous little grandson who visits grandma and granddad every Friday and enjoys indulging her youngest son's French bulldog Psmith (with a silent P). He sleeps over every Wednesday.
Dee loves talking to aspiring authors, encouraging them from the sidelines and on occasion rolling up her sleeves and acting as an author mentor.
