I'm a multi-genre author (pen name Sofia Diana Gabel) and have been writing for as long as I can remember, but I have probably spent the most time concentrating and working on the craft of writing for about the last 8 years or so.

I was born in Sydney, Australia and now live in Washington state in the United States. I used to live in California, so the rain in Washington is incredibly refreshing! I have two undergraduate degrees in archaeology and environmental resource management (wildlife biology) and a master's degree in public archaeology. I also took courses in criminal justice to lend realism to my writing. We can never learn too much, right?

In addition to writing, I absolutely adore traveling. I'm definitely a wanderer at heart and find it hard to settle in one place for long. And why should I? There are so many places to explore!
