Deborah is a great ambassador for the North-east's Doric dialect. Her love for the Mither Tung has inspired her to pen many short stories and poems, some of which have been published in the North-east's Leopard Magazine.

Deborah has published two collections of short stories written entirely in the North-east's Doric dialect: Doric - Alive an Kickin and Doric - Alive an Kickin 2.

Deborah has won four 1 st prize awards for her Doric writing. The most recent was 1 st prize in the Senior Short Story category at the 2008 Buchan Heritage Festival. She was also awarded 2nd prize in the festival's Doric story-telling competition.
