I am a 29 year old mother of two beautiful children. I was born in Frankfurt Germany and have traveled and lived throughout the world, experiencing the intrigue and enchantment of different cultures and societies.
My major in college was Wildlife Biology. I have also finished Paramedic training and volunteered at the local rescue squads wherever I lived at that time. While in college I was involved with the newspaper, writing on wildlife issues and the drama department, having directed and choreographed a musical and various dance numbers. I have always had a special love for wildlife and have expressed my love through painting, sculpting and writing.
I am a Certified Computer Technician with experience and knowledge in all Microsoft Applications including; Microsoft Word 97-2000, Excel 97-2000, PowerPoint 97-2000, Outlook 97-2000, FrontPage 97-2000, Windows 3.1, 95, 98 & all DOS applications and trouble-shooting. I am also certified to fix all hardware issues including; motherboards, cd-roms, hard drives, modems, video cards, DVD, etc.......
I am a contract Web Designer and have knowledge in HTML coding, java script, photo editing, etc. and work extensively with Jbuilder, FrontPage 2000, html 4.0, Paint Shop Pro, Image Composer 1.5, Adobe Photoshop, CorelDraw 8, etc.
I am a Freelance Writer specializing in Medical Issues as well as Computer, Web Design, Wildlife Issues, etc. I have been published in such magazines as: Selfhelp & Psychology, Eye on the Web, Recursive Angel, etc. I am also published in fictional writing.
I have written and am in the process of getting "They Call Him Wolf", an action/adventure, "McArthur: The Veggie Frog" a Children's Picture Book, and "Through the Eyes of an EMT" a Narrative Non-fiction published. I am currently working on a Sci-fi adventure entitled: "Malaya."
I am Owner and Site Administrator/Designer of Aylad's Writer's Group, which has been running since January 1997. It started out as an email critique group and in April of 1997 became a web site dedicated to helping writers achieve their dreams at geocities. In September of 1997, a good friend donated the domain where we are at now and Aylad's has grown far beyond my imagination. With the dedication of members and the help of agents and editors, Aylad's has the largest paying market listing and agent listing on the web today as well as a number of informative articles to help improve writing skills and much, much more.. In the future, Aylad's will be opening up a magazine, in the near future, featuring fiction and non-fiction works. Keep your eyes out for the Grand Opening!
I want to see other writers achieve their dreams and if I can help in any way, I will. I currently live in Rio Rancho, NM and absolutely love it here.
I hope you find my sight helpful and I hope you gain friends and knowledge from the writing group.
Sincerely,
Diana Diaz
