Diana Elliot Graham
Diana Elliot Graham is proof that you don’t need to be an author to be an author. First and foremost she is an avid reader who never read a book she regretted. She calls herself the accidental-author because she wrote her debut novel, When We Were, with some spare time, an interesting concept, and a “just keep writing” mentality. (And a lot of encouragement, okay bullying, from friends and family.) Since then, she has numerous projects that are in varying degrees of semi-finished that may or may not ever see the light of day.
