Forget Soldadera Deana Lee Ortega

Deanna Lee Ortega is a badass, single mom born and raised in El Paso, Texas. Her poetry and memoirs reveal how just putting words on paper can help you with your fears, doubt, pain and struggles. Each piece will take you on a journey though the lift of this fascinating "Soldadera." When she isn't writing, she is spending quality time with her two children, running in a marathon, playing roller derby or sipping a good cup of coffee. She published her second book, My Derby Romance in May 2020. https: //www.amazon.com/Derby-Romance-Deana-Lee-Ortega/dp/B087SN2SR9
