Today on Writer Unblocked, I’m chatting with Christina Diane, a wife and mother who enjoys weaving stories of love and passion from her home in Northern Maine. Her favorite genre to read and write are historical romances set in the Regency era. She took a long break from writing when her kids were younger, but found that she couldn’t stop thinking about stories and characters she had to get on paper! And with only a few weeks to go for her self-publishing launch, she got a SIX book deal from a publisher!

We talk about using Miro Board for storyboarding and character building, Regency Slang, investing in the community to authentically grow your following and investing in your career as an author. 

Christina loves chatting with her readers and talking about great reads, so please contact her on her socials!
