She has both a BS (NYU) and an MA (Kent State, OH) in sociology and worked in non-profit development for 25 years. Beginning in 1999, she began her next career as a Gestalt psychotherapist, which closed in 2004 when she began her Peace Corps journey.
At Home On the Kazakh Steppe: A Peace Corps Memoir was first published in August 2014 by Ant Press, with a second edition published in March 2015 (Birch Tree Books). Her first book, Stuttering (Pro-Ed, Publisher), co-authored with C. W. Starkweather, was included in Choice Magazine’s “Best Textbooks of 1997.”
She shares her life with Woody Starkweather in the Green Mountains of Vermont, USA. When she is not writing, she sings tenor in the local hospice choir, digs in the soil somewhere on her 30 acres, edits her husband’s latest novel, and enjoys being Grandma Janet to five. She also retreats to their rental property on Chincoteague Island, Virginia twice a year.
She welcomes reader feedback on her blog, Twitter, and on both her Facebook and Facebook Author Page (Janet_Givens_Author),
Oh yes; she loves that she is her dog Sasha’s favorite human.показать меньше
