I am an award-winning author.

I hail from North Carolina these days, but I was born and raised in Albany, New York, and lived in Syracuse, New York, from age 18 through age 50. I love North Carolina, but Central New York still has a strong hold on my heart and is often in my thoughts and in my books.

When I’m not writing, I’m reading a wide range of literature and genres, although mysteries are my favorite books of choice. If I’m not reading, I’m watching movies from my favorite film era, the 1950s. I keep a list of movies that I watch at least once a year, and I have a list of authors whose books I look forward to reading each time a new one is released. Stories are powerful, whether written or performed.

I always said I would write a mystery novel where the answer to the mystery was hidden in the archives. My just completed manuscript titled The Rightful Future, proves what I used to tell my company: "When things get dire, turn to the records." In my new book, librarian Marian Greene uses her research skills and races against the clock to find out who left a desecrated body in the library. When she uncovers a hidden archive, she discovers the 100-year-old town secret and that her husband, Lester, is next on the killer's list.(less)

I leave it and work on another passage or revisions, and sometimes, the solution comes to me when I have given the passage some space and let my subconscious think on it. There has been a time or two when I've woken up and remember a dream in which the solution has presented itself. The mind works in mysterious ways, but not if you are trying to force it. (less)

Dianne Hagan I haven't really used Goodreads much but pledge to use it more now. So, no I hadn't seen a pop up saying Books similar to. Plus I may not get it because I am the author. Still finding my way.

First time this has popped up when I enter GoodReads. As usual, the results are off key because they draw from a pool of readers rather than a pool of similarly themed books.
