Farm Girl

I'm Miriam, 45, an x-ray technologist by day and writer by night.
I live with depression and PMDD, and I share how you can live a joyful, happy, and sparkling life with mental illness.
I quit drinking alcohol in late 2021, and I love hiking, kayaking, skiing, yoga, and writing books.
My husband I live with a pack of dogs on a hobby ranch in BC, Canada.
Welcome!

My debut novel!

"Verheyden showcases her talent as a storyteller by skillfully dropping in clues that keep readers guessing, with prose that is punchy and sometimes darkly humorous." - Kirkus Reviews

My third book: living with mental illness, grey area drinking, living through hard times

"I've been furiously highlighting through it and reading aloud to my husband - because I recognize so much of myself in it! It feels like I'm realizing for the first time there are others out there like me."

My second book: How to live your best life

"As a recovering 'hustler' my soul needed to hear every message in this book and I'm beyond grateful these words were written."

My Memoir

“I carried this book around with me everywhere until I finished it. I loved it in a cringy way, she was so open and honest about her story and experiences. And I mean the cringing part in a good way, in it felt like at times she was writing about me."
