BIO
Her first published piece was a short story called "Mom" in The Sitting Bull, the newspaper
for her junior-senior high school.
Primarily an essayist, Girouard's work has been published in literary magazines
such as BorderCrossing, Embodied Effigies, and The Oklahoma Review. Her first
book-length work, The Other Side: Closing the Door, was published in 2015.
More recently, Girouard has combined her writing interests with her long-time
dedication toward helping with animal rescue by working on a children's series:
The Adventures of Felix and His Furry Friends, books to educate children about
cat and dog rescue, adoption and care. Additionally, a portion of the proceeds
from each book in the series is donated to specific animal rescue
organizations.
