Danielle DuChateau

I have always enjoyed writing, and it has been my preferred way of communicating with the world around me - from the moment I could first write a sentence. The grand story of life is told through many chapters - with new stories being written every day. Although I have put pen to paper to record every experience - from living in France, to battling cancer, to facing the darkness of mental illness - not until the publication of my first book was I willing to tell some of the stories with unabashed honesty and vulnerability. Creative non-fiction writing was my jumping off point, but I look forward to exploring other literary genres, and sharing them with my readers.

I pride myself on being an "open book," and being approachable and relatable. I'm always looking for ways to improve - because there is no limit to how much we can grow - both personally and professionally. While I humbly accept recognition or feedback regarding my own work, an even greater honor is when other people share their stories with me.

If you would like to connect, please do not hesitate to contact me.
