I'm looking for assignments...
If you’re looking for a columnist, I’m a single Mom raising a three-year-old son and an eight-year-old daughter. Humor, sugar and caffeine, not necessarily in that order get me through each day. I can’t bring your readers coffee but I can help bring a little humor into their lives. I also hope my quirky view of the world will help people recognize a truth in their lives that wasn’t apparent until they’ve read my work.
My essays have been published in Woman’s World Magazine, the Bucks County Courier Times and The Write Stuff online newsletter for the Amazing Instant Novelist site on AOL. I have worked the police blotter, performed general reporting, as well as feature writing for the Bucks County Courier Times.
In the three years I’ve been writing, I’ve taken fifteen writing courses. I’ve also attended two forensic classes to help show realism in my mystery fiction.
I’ve set my serial killer stories aside, for now, to work on my latest fiction project, a book of short stories set in picturesque Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania. I hope it will touch readers and help them find faith in God and themselves.
I live in historical Bucks County, Pennsylvania and enjoy researching and telling stories of the people who lived its history. I’m also interested in anything to do with police work.
Please take a moment to read a sampling of my work. I look forward to hearing your comments and will consider all assignments or referrals.
Thank you for your kind consideration.
Sincerely,
Diane Villano
