Vanessa Diffenbaugh: How to write a page-turnerWhen drafting her debut novel, The Language of Flowers, Vanessa Diffenbaugh aimed to write a book that readers wouldn’t be able to put down. It stayed on the New York Times best sellers list for 50 weeks and was translated into more than 40 languages. At the January meeting of Central Coast Writers the author will offer tips on how to write a page-turner.
Diffenbaugh is a Californian, born in San Francisco and raised in Chico. Graduating from Stanford, she worked in the non-profit sector, teaching art and technology to youth in low-income communities. Following the success of her novel, she co-founded Camellia Network, a non-profit whose mission is to connect every youth aging out of foster care to the critical resources and support needed to thrive in adulthood. She lives in Monterey, CA.
