Debra Phillips

Born in Greenwood, Mississippi, Debra Phillips is the third child from a brood of eight. A loner in her younger years, Debra amused herself by making up songs and poems. Her love for words soon grew into the writing of short stories.

First attempts at being published came to fruition with the acceptance of a Confessional story to JIVE magazine. From there the seed was planted that she would and could write, and even with all the rejections she endured in the beginning, it was her goal to never give up the dream of being a published author.

A writer who refuse to be classified in a specific 'genre', Debra Phillips writes romance, mainstream, urban fiction, and children picture books. She is the author of four books: Kiss or Keep, The High Price Of A Good Man, Too Much Drama, and her latest book: Love Trumps Game, which is penned under her alter ego name of D.Y. Phillips, her initials.

Currently she lives in southern California with her husband, Reggie, and is busy working on book five.
