Welcome to my realm on the world-wide web. I am Diane McGyver. I write traditional fantasy stories about home, true love, magic, castles, dwarfs, hauflins, elves and dragons.

I write a blog to share insight into the way I create my characters and my worlds, the Land of Ath-o’Lea and Knavesmire. I also share snippets of my characters’ lives in these worlds, news about book launches and sales, hiking, gardening and my favourite recipes.

Romance Collection: That’s what I’m calling the collection of novels I’m releasing over the next few years. They were written over the past ten years but not released. Romance is often not the main theme of the book, but it’s in each one in some measure.

The first book, Northern Survival, was released September 2020. The second, the Salvation of Mary Lola Barnes, was released October 27, 2020. This month (December 2021), Natural Selection and A December Knight. was released. What’s next?

Current Status

What is consuming my time in December 2021?

1. What am I promoting? For the next four weeks, I’m promoting my new release, Natural Selection and A December Knight.
2. What am I writing? At this very moment, I’m not writing anything as I swing back into a routine of being indoors and on the computer. However, I’ve been dabbling with a story, adding words here and there. It’s a futuristic story that will take a few years to complete.
3. What am I editing/revising? Nothing at the moment.

Keep up-to-date on all these activities as I post regular updates on my blog page.
