DESCRIPTION: \n\nLost Found Kept: A Memoir by Deborah Derrickson Kossmann\, 
 is a book about the author's experience cleaning out her childhood home\, 
 which reveals her mother's severe hoarding and unearths family secrets... 
 including the search for her biological father and stepfather. The memoir\, 
 written by a clinical psychologist\, explores themes of family trauma\, 
 mental illness\, and the complex\, often contradictory\, love between a 
 daughter and her mother\, all while navigating the physical and emotional 
 debris of the past. \n\nLost Found Kept: A Memoir was published by Trio 
 House Press in early 2025. It is the winner of the 2023 Aurora Polaris

 Short Memoir Competition at the 2007 Philadelphia First Person Arts 
 Festival. She has also received a Pennsylvania Council on the Arts Poetry 
 Fellowship and an Individual Creative Artist-Special Opportunity Stipend 
 for Literature (Poetry) from the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts. Her 
 poetry\, essays and feature articles have appeared in a range of literary 
 journals and other publications including the Nashville Review\, The Woven 
 Tale Press\, and Psychotherapy Networker. She has been a fellow in 
 residence at the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts and The Ragdale 
 Foundation on a number of occasions for both poetry and nonfiction.\n\n 
 \n\nKossmann has been in full time private practice for more than thirty 
 years and has experience in oncology\, community mental health\, and 
 leadership consulting. Deb lives outside Philadelphia\, PA with her 
 husband\, Marc\, and Sofia Carmela\, a cat with a whole lot of
