Publication Credits

September 2024

While I have new publications come out every year, and I still get excited about every single one, I often forget to update this. If you find an old publication with my name in it and you don’t see it posted here, please shoot me a line. Since my work was published in 1999, I’ve had many moves and two major digital dumps. I would love to know what my complete body of work looks like!

From 1998 - Present

Diana Rajchel has worked as a professional writer and has publication credits going back to the early nineties. As a result, this C.V. is far from exhaustive.
