I was thrilled and honored this week to be featured in our local newspaper, The Flinders News.
I hope my story will be an inspiration to other people, especially women, that coming from a small town does not preclude you from living the life of your dreams.
Except from the newspaper below:
Gladstone Author Set To Release New Book
May 9th 2019
Gladstone resident, now author Dee Scown is months away from releasing her first book The Grand Plan shattered? How to turn your life around after a crisis, written as a response to her challenging life story.
Dee's inspiration for writing a book drew from her personal experience of having an opportunistic door slammed in her face, after she decided she wanted to go back to school and university and head down a different career path.
"I started my grand plan, go back to school, go back to university for a whole heap of years and then go out and get an engineering job, architectural engineering. I went to Gladstone High School, did Year 11 again and aced it, went back to Year 12 and in April of that year I became extremely unwell," she explained.
