Diana's first novel, Stuck in the Onesies, grew out of her experiences living outside the nation's capital in the Maryland suburbs back in the 1960s and 70s when social issues first bubbled to the surface in the form of marches and riots. My Mother's Apprentice is the sequel to Stuck in the Onesies and the story of the next generation, dealing with the tough issues of abortion and addiction. My Mother's Apprentice was awarded the bronze medal by the Florida Authors and Publishers Association in 2019. Diana published her third novel, Ginger Star (historical fiction), in December, 2022 which is a prequel of Stuck in the Onesies and has the promise of a sequel.
