Kimberly Diede

Kimberly Diede is an author of uplifting women's fiction that celebrates midlife, family, friendship, and the enduring pull of lakeside living in the upper Midwest. Her stories center on strong, thoughtful women navigating change, loss, forgiveness, and the quiet courage required to begin again, often later in life than expected.She published her first novel in 2017 and now writes full time, after making a significant career transition of her own from a long corporate career to creative work. Kimberly's writing is deeply influenced by the remarkable women in her own family and by her belief that encouragement and storytelling can be powerful companions during seasons of transition.When she isn't writing, Kimberly enjoys treasure hunting for vintage finds, spending time at the lake, and gathering inspiration from the rhythms of everyday life, elements that frequently find their way into her fiction.
