Broken Chair:  A Daughter’s Journey

Denyse Mouck is the author of Broken Chair:  A Daughter’s Journey - a work of historical fiction that follows the journey of four generations of women as they try to survive the sexist restrictions of their times. 

A key character in the story, Rhita, is based on Denyse’s mother.  To use the cliche - Denyse says she walked a mile in her mom’s moccasins in order to learn about and develop her character.

Denyse says she never really viewed herself as a writer, and became involved  in everything from politics to pottery and painting….but kept coming back to writing. She says everyone is really good at something…you just have to figure out what that is.
