Dionne Abouelela is a dreamer with a chronic case of wanderlust. She has an affinity for lukewarm coffee laced with cinnamon, eating ice cubes, petting puppies, and anything with a dinosaur. She now lives in Munich, Germany, with her Egyptian husband and adorably naughty street dog rescued during her six years living in India.

Dionne founded Pen Name Publishing in 2014 while in the midst of finishing her Master’s Degree. She is an internationally certified Life Coach, specializing in Goal Achievement and Lifestyle Design. After working with amazing authors, she focused her coaching practice on helping authors develop their business with the creation of Happy Writing Co (https://happywriting.co). 

You can chat with Dionne every Sunday on Twitter for #HappyWritingChat, or join Happy Writing on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/groups/happy...).

Dionne blogs about lifestyle design for renaissance souls, creativity, and personal development at Girl Vs. City (https://girlvscity.com), and you can reach her on any social media channel under GirlVsCity.
