Welcome to my website. My name is Diane Paul. I have been a professional writer for most of my working life, with experience in public relations writing, journalism and features, creative writing tutoring and workshops. I have authored three books, one of which won two book awards. I have an MA in scriptwriting. I write a successful book blog at http://bookblogforbookworms.blogspot.com and  I appraise other writers' manuscripts. This is where I can help you. 

The photo above shows the first book I had published, Living Left-Handed (Bloomsbury Publishing). You can read the first chapter by pressing the button on the Books page and you will find details of my other books there.  

Manuscript Appraisals

'The greatest gift that an emerging writer can bestow upon themselves is the ability to accept constructive criticism of their work and move forwards.' Diane Paul
