My Worlds Are Colliding!

By Diane on April 28, 2016 in Beyond The Covers, Blog, Hunt for Jack Reacher

As a crime fiction author and lawyer, DNA is involved in a lot of what I’m thinking and writing about all the time.

Do You Use Ancestry.com? The popular genealogy website isn’t paying me to write this article, scout’s honor. So tell me honestly.

By Diane on April 19, 2016 in Beyond The Covers, Blog, True Crime

As a mystery and thriller writer, my books require extensive research on DNA. DNA is so packed with data that it’s no surprise DNA has been the key to solving countless mysteries.

Owl or Lark? Why It’s Okay to NOT Be A Morning Person

By Diane on April 16, 2016 in Beyond The Covers, Blog

When do you do your best work? For me, it’s any time AFTER morning. Or, as my friend Lee Child famously said, “Nothing of value happens before noon.” I totally agree! Does this make me a bad person? Does it mean I’m lazy or weak? Of course not! It’s just that we owls operate a […]
