edit data

As a mom of two littles, D.L. Houpt is used to the daily chaos. From a young age, she found herself escaping in the pages of novels. She loves writing stories, dreaming up magical worlds, and doom scrolling astrophysics videos that send her into an existential crisis. When she isn’t found typing up her new idea (most likely ignoring her husband to write), she’s in the garden with her daughter or enjoying a book with her son.
Engineer by day, she uses her writing as an outlet to uplift powerful women whether they be behind a computer monitor in an office or a shield on the battlefield.

“She was a woman who truly saw the beauty of the world in kaleidoscope shades of countless colors and hues. A woman who felt deeply and thoroughly with her entire soul and who fought, tirelessly and unyieldingly for those that she loved. Including herself. I wanted to know her, to feel her coursing through my veins once more.”
