Diane E. Lindmark was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  She is the youngest of four children.  Her father was an aeronautical engineer, so as a child she moved around a lot, but has spent the majority of her life in Texas and has always considered herself a native San Antonio girl, though she has resided in Arlington, Texas since 2008.  She was home schooled through high school and has always longed to be a writer, but being severely dyslexic, she thought this an impossible feat, so she pursued other avenues of work.  In 2002 she became a mother for the first time and has since had two other children.  In 2010, she married a wonderful man who encouraged her to pursue her dream of being a writer by buying her a talk to text software program and on July 20, 2014, she sat down and began writing A Solitary Stone, which was completed in 91 days.  Diane published her first book in September 2015, A Solitary Stone, Book 1 of The Stone Wall Series, and has published 6 more Stone Universe series books and has 4 more awaiting publication.  She also now has Safe Haven, Book 1 of the McLoughlin Family, a Western Series, and includes two more books published and a companion book to follow, and The Christmas Hitchhiker, book 1 of the Cross Family, a Christmas inspirational series, and has two sequels published and two more to follow, along with two companion books to follow.  She has now published her first Christian fiction, An Accident of Faith, and her first YA, The Wrong Life, in addition to having 5 one-offs published.  She also has 29 works awaiting publication and is always writing.
