Deborah de Camaret

Deborah de Camaret has lived half of her adult life in California, and the other half in France. A lover of travel, she has toured the US, Canada, Mexico, South America, Europe, Southeast Asia, and India. Her Master’s degrees in French literature and psychology led to careers in teaching foreign language and psychology and exercising psychotherapy in hospitals, clinics, and in private practice. Since childhood, she has been writing almost daily: diaries, letters, poetry, and short stories, not to mention university thesis, and finally a novel. Orvil: Trial and Error is a culmination in the form of fiction of her rich personal and professional life, her fascination and interaction with people of all walks of life, her political views, her reverence for nature, and most of all, her love of language.
