Bio:I write. For entirely more info than you'll probably need on this topic, you might want to take a look at the Wikipedia entry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diane_Duane), search at Amazon.com, or check my bibliography/filmography .

Otherwise, I just plain spend much too much time online. :)

Go on, friend me. I don't bite. None of my entries are friendslocked: this isn't that kind of journal -- though I do occasionally break over and talk about writing, the rest of it isn't intensely personal stuff. Please note, though: I have a lot to do around here, and may be very delayed about getting back to you on comments.

The latest thing to come down the pike around here is the happy news that A Wizard of Mars has finally been scheduled for Autumn 2008. By way of celebration -- and a teaser for those who've waited a while for this book -- the first four chapters are being made available by subscription over at the Young Wizards Discussion Forums (where the proceeds will go towards Forum expansion). If you're interested in subscribing to the "teaser" run, you can get more information here or here. Chapter 3 went up on September 15th, and at least one more chapter is scheduled to be posted in October.

Also ongoing (though we've had a hiatus over the last few months due to events leading up to a loss in the family ) is the online writing project intended to complete the Feline Wizardry trilogy. To find out more, check the website for The Big Meow. (The project's weblog remains where it was at felinewizards3.blogspot.com.)

And if you're looking for information about another book of mine that's complete but only available online, you'll find it here: http://raetiantales.blogspot.com

Thanks!
