The Spark of Inspiration

Wondering what ignited her passion for writing? Well, it was the encouragement of friends, family, and a former English Literature teacher who gave her the confidence to put her thoughts to paper.

Crafting Stories

Diana shared her creative process with us, highlighting the importance of sketching out the basic plot before adding the intricate details. This method allows her imagination to roam freely, making her tales complex and utterly engaging.

A Closer Look at "Winds of Change"

Now, let's dive into the heart of it. Diana’s book, "Winds of Change", is a thrilling family saga trilogy set against the captivating backdrop of Africa. Inspired by "The Thorn Birds," one of her all-time favourite sagas, this trilogy guarantees a captivating journey through the African wild.

Meet the characters

In "Winds of Change", you'll meet Melonie Whitaker, the protagonist who endured unimaginable hardships during a turbulent era. Her tenacity, love for horses, and deep compassion make her an inspiring character. Facing her is the sinister Colonel Solomon Tlale, hell-bent on her destruction. The clash between these compelling characters will keep you on the edge of your seat.

When asking about Key Themes of “Winds of Change” she replies,

“Even during war times, there are two sides to every story, but the bottom line is; that hate and vengeance have a way of coming back at those who dish it out.”

The author is conveying that in times of conflict, there are typically multiple perspectives and narratives to consider. However, the core message is that negative emotions such as hate and the pursuit of vengeance tend to have consequences, often returning to affect those who initially harbor and act upon them.

Standout moments

What sets this book apart from others in the same genre? Diana’s authenticity. Her personal experiences and unique background enrich her storytelling, making you feel like you're right there, living the story with her characters.

Exploring the Creative Process

Writing "Winds of Change" took the author two years, with the most significant challenge being piecing it all together to ensure a seamless flow. Self-doubt, a familiar adversary for writers, was something she had to conquer.

A Wealth of Experience

Diana had the unique advantage of living through a turbulent time, which meant less research for her book. Her lifelong involvement with horses and expertise in equine matters further enriched her storytelling.

A Trusted Partner

Why did Diana choose to publish with Publishing Push?

“Eight years ago, when Publishing Push was in its infancy, they were a great help in publishing my debut novel. Publishing Push offered a great start to my publishing journey. I had a three-year gap and went back to them with the next three books.”

For aspiring authors looking to get published, Diana suggests, “New authors often make expensive mistakes. Publishing Push helps alleviate expensive mistakes and puts Indie authors on their road to success.”

What's on the horizon for Diana?

Exciting times, indeed! Her trilogy, beginning with "Winds of Change", will soon be followed by "Beneath the Lemonwood Tree," and a psychological thriller based on a true story, "Don't Blame Me." And who knows, her dream of turning the trilogy into a television series might just come true!
