When she was a child, Diane wanted to be a Marchombre (thanks to Pierre Bottero). Or a teacher at Hogwarts. Since everybody told her it was not possible, she ended up working in animation then tourism.

She recently discovered that Marchombres existed in real life and is currently reconverting into steeplejack. If you happen to be in Toulouse, watch up and you might see her signing her books for the seagulls! 

When she's not working, Diane is playing pirate (her penname is a tribute to the dreaded pirate Roberts, for Princess Bride fans), or escaping through her books. She has been writing for ages but she is also a huge reader: she loves SFFF and every genres inside. She is also a roleplayer and enjoys tabletop RPGs and adventuring with friends.

In 2020, she takes profit from being home to write her first book. You can find her on Instagram where she talks about magic systems... But very different from Hogwarts!
