Diane D. Gillette is a writer living in Chicago.  Her short fiction has appeared in many literary magazines, and she is always hard at work on some larger project.  She is an Assisting Managing Editor for Chicago Quarterly Review, and she is a member of multiple writing groups, which gives her lots of opportunities to sit in a coffee shop nibbling on baked goods and discussing writing.  One of these days, she'll get a novel finished and start the process of trying to find a home for it.  In the meantime, she has turned her unhealthy obsession for her cats into Conversing with Cats, a humorous blog that explores what they might say if her cats could actually talk.  Get more details on her current projects here, or feel free to send her an email using the form below and ask her anything you want about her writing.

When she isn't writing or thinking about writing or talking about writing, she can frequently be found working with her amazing students, reading voraciously, eating at one of Chicago's many delicious restaurants,  or volunteering at her favorite Chicago non-profit.  She lives with the love of her life and their two pampered felines.
