Author Study - Diane Chamberlain

I recently read three novels by Diane Chamberlain. Her books are a recently-discovered treasure, and I look forward to reading so much more from this prolific author.

I wrote an author study based on the three books that I've read, and literary website bookscover2cover published it. Here is the link:

I hope you enjoy.

Cheers,
Piper

New Novel!

Hi everyone,

I released my latest novel, Suburban Skies. It was a labor of love writing it as it made me reminisce about my post-Katrina experience. The novel is a women's fiction/mystery where residents of a small condominium complex in the New Orleans area are rebuilding theirs homes after Katrina, and the most exasperating, trouble-making member of their community is found unconscious in her FEMA trailer. The characters' secrets, weaknesses, strengths, and facades are revealed.

You can get it for special price of 99 cents at Amazon.
