About the Author: Once upon a time lived a gal named Diane Capogna from upstate New York. She resided with her husband Jason, two pups Clyde and Gypsy, and two cats Sunshine and Storm. She enjoyed hiking, camping, boating, live music, traveling, time with friends and family, and being creative when at all possible. Diane’s love for creativity started through writing poetry in her early teens. Torn between a future in journalism and educating children, she obtained a degree in early childhood education. Time was spent owning and operating a daycare center, teaching, and caring for her son P.J. In later years, Diane found her passion for writing once again, through the passing of her beloved Great Dane Abbey Rose in 2020. During a pandemic, and times of grief, she put thoughts to paper of fond memories and experiences that she shared with Abbey. Diane hopes by sharing her stories and real-life adventures, she will keep Abbey’s memory alive while bringing a smile to her readers’ faces.
