Diana Perry
I have loved to write since I knew how. Other than being with family, reading a good book or writing one is my favorite past-time. Previously, I have worked as an editor for Gardenia Book Publishing and Talent Magazine. I have also served as reader editor for two publishers and have over 200 tear sheets to my publishing credits including fillers, celebrity interviews, short stories, articles and puzzles in many newspapers and magazines throughout the country including The Ohio Valley Outdoors Magazine, The Wheeling Intelligencer newspaper, Quaker Life Magazine, The Ohio Valley Parent Magazine, The Outdoor Sportsman Magazine, The Mining Gazette newspaper, The Summer Survival Guide for Parents Magazine, The Charlotte Observer newspaper and Ridin’ On Motorcycle Magazine. I’ve done celebrity interviews including Don and Kandi Kinski who star in Whitetail Freaks on PBS’ The Outdoor Channel.
My short story, How God Makes Music, was chosen for the cover story of the June 2012 issue of Primary Treasure Magazine and my short story, Temptation at Fashion Station, also made the cover story of the June 2012 issue of Guide Magazine. My story Be Still and Listen was recently chosen by Bread Ministries for their juvenile magazine Bread for God’s Children. My juvenile book, The Snake That Could Bake, placed third in the national juvenile fiction contest, Stepping Stones. Many of my stories appear in Chicken Soup for the Soul books.
The main book genres in which I work are Children’s Books, Chapter Books, Pre-Teen mysteries, Christian fiction for children, Christian Action-Suspense crossovers for adult as well as Fantasy, Action Adventures and Murder Mysteries. I also have TripleCross Productions launching soon which will produce audio episodes for travelers.
I judge contests across the nation including Story Monsters, Ink’s Purple Dragonfly and Royal Dragonfly contests. I have taught writing classes for over twenty years.
I am currently on my final year of book tour to schools with three of my children’s books, The Weather by Heather, The Snake That Could Bake and Andres, the Mighty Maya Warrior.. I endeavor to include sciences and activity pages in every book. Don’t just entertain with books – educate!
