Welcome.

I'm glad you stopped by. I hope you'll stop by again.

About Me

Diane Burton


I grew up in the Detroit-area and have lived in Portage (MI), Sedalia (MO) as well as a brief stint in Chicago-land.  I've been a Parks & Recreation supervisor, an inventory clerk for a flute store, and a long-time volunteer for Girl Scouts. My last job was for an oil and gas exploration company where I discovered the cure for insomnia—reading oil and gas leases.  My longest-running gig was as a teacher where I taught elementary kids for over 10 years.  I am a member of Romance Writers of America and the Mid-Michigan, Kiss of Death, and Fantasy, Futuristic & Paranormal chapters of RWA, Sisters in Crime and its new Michigan chapter. 

I met my own hero on a blind date. It was love at first sight--for me. It took him a little longer. We currently reside in West Michigan and have two grown children and five delightful grandchildren.


I’ve been a reader all my life, and I love movies, especially action adventure, mysteries, science fiction, and romantic comedy. Miss Fisher Mysteries, Firefly, and NCIS are my favorite TV shows. So is it any wonder that I write science fiction romance and romantic suspense, both with comedic elements?
