Bio

Deborah Diner was born into a military family, and grew up moving all over the country. She has always loved books and words, and wanted to be a writer even before she could read. Some of her earliest memories are of dictating stories to her mother, who typed them up and bound them into her first published books. In college, Deborah continued developing her writing as she studied English, Astronomy, and Elementary Education at the University of Virginia. After nearly a decade of teaching fourth grade, she moved into the role of school librarian, and now spends her days sharing her love of literature with students in Winchester, Virginia.

​

When she is not working on her writing, she enjoys embroidery, camping, playing the fiddle, and indoor rock climbing. Deborah is represented by Kelly Dyksterhouse at Tobias Literary Agency.
