Diana López

Writing from Corpus Christi Texas, Diana López is the author of numerous middle grade novels such as Confetti Girl, Nothing Up My Sleeve, and Lucky Luna. The first two books of her Los Monstruos series, Felice and the Wailing Woman and Rooster and the Dancing Diablo, are now available with the third book, Ava and the Owl-Witch, arriving next fall. She is a proud member of the Texas Institute of Letters. She retired after a 28-year career in education at both the middle school and college levels, but she still wears her “teacher hat” as a mentor for programs like the AWP and Las Musas.
