Diane Wallace

Diane Wallace draws upon decades of personal experiences to write stories that amuse, encourage the reader to consider the meaning of life, and share a personal journey. She grew up on the shores of Lake Superior in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, a land of incredible beauty. She attended Northern Michigan University and graduated with a degree in Social Work. She has been writing stories since childhood, won First Prize in a Kansas Author's Club contest, wrote a weekly column in a local newspaper for four years, and has written articles on several online platforms, including her own website.

A personal note from Diane Wallace: You might wonder why I decided to write five books since I am now considered to be elderly. I wrote a lot on-line, first at a place called Squidoo, and then on my own website. These were articles of people and places that interested me, and some shorter articles about my personal life. I thought to myself "if those short articles were put together, they might make a great book." That turned into Zen and the Art of Kitty Litter Raking, which has been received favorably by those who have read it. I then challenged myself to write about my personal spiritual journey. Walking a Crooked Path is not lengthy, but as one reviewer noted it is a "beautifully written memoir that captures the essence of a lifelong spiritual quest." It was chosen as a winner of an International Impact Book Award in the category of Spirituality: Soul Work and Spiritual Awakening.

My fifth book is The Quest for the Yellow Diamond.
