I’m Diane, a pan/demi author. I have two books out: a YA sapphic romance called DOES LOVE ALWAYS WIN? and a queer YA superhero novel called SUPERFICIAL. I'm currently querying a sapphic murder mystery; think queer Scooby Doo. I write the books I wished I could have read in HS.🏳️‍🌈

Both of my YA books from @CreativeJamesM1 are on sale this summer and funny enough, they are both set in the summer. SUPERFICIAL is set in June at a Comic Con Convention in Philadelphia and DOES LOVE ALWAYS WIN? starts in late August and there's a beach scene. Links below!
