WELCOME!

SPRING has finally arrived! Just feeling the sun on my face brings hope and joy to my spirit! So thankful the cold winter is behind us (hopefully!) and warmth and fun is ahead!

Thank you for stopping by my author website! I write about what’s new in my world of authoring. I also share news of upcoming releases, promotions and events! https://dianeorrauthor.com/events/. I love sharing what’s new in my world of authoring, farming and just “living de good life”. I will also update as to what projects I am working on as well as giving tips for writing your own book. So, come on in, browse around, enjoy your stay and come back soon! If you are interested in my “life blog” or my “author blog”, please check out those pages


Watch for news of the upcoming release of Just the Right Size (Book 2 in the “Micah Book Series”). Told in rhyme, this is the story of how Micah, my toddler, finds he is too small for many things he wants to do for himself. However, he finds ONE important thing for which he is JUST THE RIGHT SIZE! This books is illustrated by the same talented illustrator as the first book in the series…but WATCH! There is coming news about a re-release of A Day in the Life (Book 1) with a new title!

Dream Big, Little One encourages us all, young or old, to continue dreaming and embracing all of the big possibilities! Watch for details!

UPCOMING EVENTS

I am looking forward to participating in this event again this year! One of my new releases will be available for this event! Put it on your calendar and come see me!


I am eagerly planning for this year’s Marysville Festifair 2024 which will be held on Saturday, September 7th in downtown Marysville, Ohio! I will have a gift for each child who stops by my table!

I really enjoyed last year’s Festifair with many children and families stopping by to add another book to their collection and tell me about their favorite book!

I hope to see you there in September!


CURRENTLY PUBLISHED BOOKS

I have written 8 books in my nonfiction picture book series called the “de Good Life Farm” series. Each illustration is my own photograph of the animals. Additionally, each of these books features a glossary at the end of the book to help children learn unfamiliar words.

Some of my picture books are sweet stories based on my children and grandchildren.

Additionally, “Pamona’s Spectacular Pumpkin Patch” is an historical fiction chapter book with a wonderful, unexpected twist at the end. For more information on these books, check out the “Books” tab at the top of this page.

I hope you will find something here to enhance your life, either with laughter, or comradery, or maybe even a new idea to try. If you like what you see, please subscribe to get the latest news!
