Diane's Bio
I
hope you have enjoyed my website and the excerpts from my books.
Now,
a little bit about me. I am the mother of two wonderful children, Elaine and Scott. Elaine is an Interior Designer and Scott
is an Auto Mechanic. Now that Elaine has gotten married, I can add my new son-in-law, Kurt, among my family as well.
If
you want to know where I get my inspiration for romance, you need look no further than my husband, Ed. He is the one
true love of my life and my biggest supporter. We have been married for 28 wonderful years and look forward to many more.
As
a graduate of Cook College at Rutgers University in New Jersey (I was Diane Bauer back then), I originally wanted to be a
veterinarian, but my life took a different direction, and I eventually became a technical writer and now a romance writer
as well.
I
have two sisters, Dolores, my twin, and my younger sister, Susan. Both sisters live in Pennsylvania. As
a result I have spent plenty of time in their fair state and it seemed like the perfect state for my heroes in Jenny's Passion (formerly My Enemy, My Love) and Lila's Vow to claim as their home with its historical past and wonderful scenery.
My
historical romance, Secrets and Sacrifices, boasts a hero from my own town of Havre de Grace, Maryland and some scenes from nearby Ft. Delware that will raise
the hair on your arms!
I
chose to write about the Civil War time period because I have an avid interest in that era of our country's history. When
I was in elementary school I had to write a report about Abraham Lincoln and then I saw Gone with the Wind. I have
been hooked ever since.
In addition
to three Civil War romances, my newest book, Adam's Treasure, takes place after the war. Check out the cover for Adam's Treasure...hot, hot, hot!
I am a member of
the Romance Writers of America, and the Maryland Romance Writers chapter for fun. And I am a member of the Society of
Technical Communication for professional reasons.
