Autorenporträt
Dianne Gorvin writes with the kind of emotional precision that comes from a life deeply observed. Born in Iowa and now based in Austin, Texas, she spent much of her career in marketing and strategic planning before turning her focus to the stories that had long been quietly taking shape in her imagination.Her debut novel, The Tides of Yesterday, explores memory, identity, and the intricate bonds of family. Written with clarity and compassion, it reads like a conversation with someone you've known for years-intimate, reflective, and quietly powerful.Always an avid reader, she began writing over twenty years ago. It wasn't until recently that she decided to bring her work to the publishing arena. Her style is shaped by the wit of Charles Dickens and the emotional depth of Delia Owens, and she's drawn to characters who are never quite what they seem.Outside of writing, Dianne enjoys traveling, gardening, and spending time with her family. A former wine steward, she still enjoys discovering new vintages and pairing them with a wonderful book. She is currently working on her second novel."Books and reading are respite for the soul. They immerse you in places you have only dreamed of, offering new concepts, ideas and opening our hearts and minds to the world".
