Deborah Dugan never outgrew her childhood obsession with the stars—she just learned to turn it into fiction. Her first stories appeared around age ten, when she decided alien civilizations probably spoke in strings of all vowels or all consonants. When that proved unpronounceable (and mildly disastrous), she pivoted to English and hasn’t looked back.
A lifelong explorer of quantum physics, metaphysics, and all things extraterrestrial, Deborah’s curiosity eventually evolved into The Traveler series—stories that blend science, humor, and the wonderfully unpredictable nature of being human.
Born in the Midwest and now based in the Pacific Northwest, she spends her time pondering the multiverse, researching new theories that make her head spin, and occasionally wondering if her coffee maker might be sentient.

The Traveler – Book 4
When every reality is within reach, which one will you claim?
Harry’s transformation is complete—he’s finally human. Or something close to it. But beneath his new skin, energy pulses with the power to bend realities, a dazzling web of glittering motes that can unlock any timeline… or unravel them all.
As he struggles to adapt to the complexities of human life—sensory overload, unpredictable emotions, and the strange pull of human connection—Harry discovers a truth more dangerous than any past life: evolution doesn’t end with the body. It begins with the heart.
One slip, one surge of emotion, and the veil between worlds could shatter.
Now, hunted by those who fear what he is and stalked by forces he doesn’t yet understand, Harry must master the storm within—or risk destroying not just his future, but every reality tethered to it.
In this gripping installment of The Traveler series, the most dangerous evolution isn’t physical—it’s emotional.
Poor New Year. It’s expected that the New Year enables people to basically have a fresh start – like all their ways and means from last year will somehow magically readjust to some higher level (or lower, depending on sugar… Continue Reading…
Driven to Distraction I like recreational driving, if and when it makes economic sense to use up all that gas just for my entertainment. I live in a place where the roads are full of curves; they go up and… Continue Reading…
Death by Chocolate, or Maybe Lightning I’m doing some traveling this month and I actually went somewhere that is hotter than where I live. Crazy, right? Who in their right mind would do that? (I think the key there is… Continue Reading…
To set the scene: My smallish, single-level house is situated in a cul-de-sac in a small town that’s considered by big city folks to be “out in the country”. The houses around the cul-de-sac are fairly close together, with some… Continue Reading…
Temperature and Age are Only Numbers For someone who’s just had her (really big number) birthday, I find my life moving faster than ever. Good grief, doesn’t the universe know I’m retired? Shouldn’t life be taking a slower pace? It’s… Continue Reading…
DRIFTING I think most people have something weird happen to them from time to time. Maybe they think they’ve seen a ghost or a UAP (formerly known as a UFO). Some folks may think they get more than their fair… Continue Reading…
Embrace the Chaos I see from the date on my last post that I’ve been out of touch for quite a while (yet again). In my defense, I did manage to get Book 4 of The Traveler finished and through… Continue Reading…
Accept All Cookies, But Let Them Eat Cake Look at me go, writing another blog already! Maybe those New Year’s resolutions are finally kicking in. I approached the 2025 resolutions list with a moderate mindset; after all, I’d like to… Continue Reading…
