After being there a little over a year, they got married and a short while after that moved to Shreveport, Louisiana where she immediately began her studies to be able to work as a Registered Nurse. While studying for her boards, she was allowed to work as a scrub technician in an operating room at a nearby surgery center. She passed her boards and worked in an operating room for many years before moving to Las Vegas, Nevada there she worked at a busy University Medical Trauma Center as a staff nurse for several years until she earned the position of Charge Nurse.
By 2001, she was divorced and living with her two young sons. Her desire to make more money became her impetus to start her own business, which soon became her sole source of income as her success grew. She has never looked back.
Gulten found her talent and passion in creating one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces and sold them to well-known people, such as Celine Dion, Rachel Ray and Mary Higgins Clark. She became an international success when her work showed on Entertainment Tonight and Insider and was for sale in the high-end casinos in Las Vegas and on high-end cruise liners. She then created a jewelry line called Metamorphosis, a line of interchangeable jewelry that brought her even greater success.
Gulten is also an author and self- published her first book Semi Coma – Evolution of my Intermittent Consciousness in 2011, currently selling on all digital media as well as in hard copy. Her second book “The Missing Link” is awaiting publication in 2013.
In 2013, she opened her new concept store where she not only sells her own designs, but includes many local artists of different medium, including a local authors section. In turn for being able to sell their artwork in her store, all artists have agreed to teach others their medium for the future generation free thinkers.
Gulten lives and creates in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Thank you for this
interview! I’d like to know
more about you as a person first. What
do you do when you’re
not writing?
I am a jewelry designer and I also have a retail shop - those two things keep me very busy especially since I design and create most of the jewelry in my shop, as well for many private clients
Writing is
something I try to do at least an hour or two every day because I love it, but
I always have several things I am
working on at all times so it’s really
difficult to define certain times for anything, including writing.
When did you start
writing?
When I was in
middle school.
As a published author, what would you
say was the most pivotal point of your writing life?
The most crucial point of my writing
life for me was to discover my genuine love for writing. The feeling I get from writing is truly a
gift for me; it’s
as if I can't wait to carve out a moment from my busy schedule to sit down with
myself and allow whatever is inside of my heart to come right out onto the
pages! During writing I always get the sense of being in the company of my
readers I feel their subtle presence I am sharing directly with them there are
no barriers its me and them no paper no pen almost no words, it's magical
really. When I am in true writing space
I am in the flow with myself and with everything there
is.
If you could go anywhere in the world
to start writing your next book, where would that be and why?
I have asked myself that very
question countless of times in my life, and I am always surprised with the
conflicted answers that arise within me.
I guess I truly don't know the answer to this question for at times I
want to be by the ocean where there are people, and other times, I just want to
be deep in the woods where there are people, but not the screaming ones but the
contented ones. I suppose I get a certain sense of strength from people. One
thing is certain, I love nature, warm weather, and people as long as I have a
space to hide away from it all anytime I want to, and to come out to play when
I want to. I am sure to love the place, and as for writing, I am able to write
anywhere.
If you had 4 hours of extra time
today, what would you do?
Go get a massage. have my nails done,
and take my parents to all the places they want to go.
Where would you like to set a story
that you haven’t
done yet?
In another dimension yet to be
discovered.
Back to your present book, (Semi Coma, Evolution Of My Intermittent
Consciousness), how did you publish it?
I choose to self-publish.
In writing your book, did you travel
anywhere for research?
No, I didn't need to do any research
for my book; however, during the time of writing this book, I visited more than
a dozen countries for my other business.
Why was writing (Semi Coma, Evolution of My Intermittent Consciousness) so
important to you?
For as long as I can remember, I have
always loved writing. For me, it is such
a wonderful way of getting in touch with what is really goes on in my
subconscious. As for my book itself, I
guess you could say that when I began to understand my happiness didn't have to
be accidental, that I actually had something to do with it, and that I could
make more of it anytime I chose to, I wanted to share that message with others.
Where do you get your best ideas and
why do you think that is?
I get my best ideas when I truly am
away from my mental chatter. I think it's because the ideas are always infinite
and it resides within us, and when we tune out the chatter, we are able to
notice them.
Any final words?
Yes, go out and be happy.
