Derya Öztürk

Writer of local history and memoir

  • 🇹🇷 Kadıköy, Istanbul, Türkiye
  • Cedar Grove Review
  • 1996 to 2010

I've been writing from 1996 to 2010. First as a hobby, then as a job and finally as the thing I couldn't stop doing. I write best early in the morning with a pot of tea. I volunteer at the food bank on Saturdays.
