I am an author, writer, homeopath, nutritionist, gardener and nature lover. I began my career with my own variety series on BBC as a singer. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome put an end to that world-traveling life as an entertainer, and I studied nutrition and homeopathy.

I recently changed my focus to be able to write full-time, and have published six books.

My new women's fiction novel, "Eva" was launched in the summer of 2023 and won the Reviewer's Award from Feathered Quill Book Awards for 2024! I call it a love story with a supernatural twist. Here is a little more about it.:

Eva possesses a unique and powerful gift. But is it a curse?

She plays down her beauty, to avoid attention. But it doesn’t work. She has a magnetic quality, a calm, a power o

As a singer/songwriter, I learned to trust the creative process and dive deeply into it. You have to dare to be criticized, dare to be silly, to be crazy, to be wild. There are moments during writing where you forget yourself entirely. You lose track of time. The writing seems to have taken over. Sometimes you look down and are surprised by what you read, as if you didn't, in fact, write it! I can only describe this experience as somehow verging on transcendent, in that it feels beyond the limits of experience, or independent of this world. It is exciting, inspiring, and rewarding.(less)

The Piano Tuner by Daniel       Mason
"In two words: horrendously tedious.

Mason has no idea how to create compelling characters or provide information in a non-clumsy way. He seriously provides a complete "briefing" on the history of Burma in the story (the character is given this docume" Read more of this review »

This book starts out well, excellent premise. And I enjoyed the writing style,passionately descriptive. But it seems to devolve into an obvious first episode of a series. It doesn't even resolve at the end of the first book. The

Making Connections: Eva by Diane Solomon 6 25 Jul 31, 2023 07:39PM  
“You do not have to be good.
You do not have to walk on your knees
for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves.
Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.
Meanwhile the world goes on.
Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain
are moving across the landscapes,
over the prairies and the deep trees,
the mountains and the rivers.
Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,
are heading home again.
Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,
the world offers itself to your imagination,
calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting –
over and over announcing your place
in the family of things.”
Mary Oliver
