SEVEN LIVES_A DIVA'S STORY_BRAND-NEW INSCRIBED 2020 SOFTCOVER _PB_DIANE MORRISON

Description: Witty, profound and a bit cheeky, Seven Lives: A Diva's Story is a journey through seven stages of life marked by seven nicknames: Rare Orchid: a survivor, Tough Cookie: a performer, Ginger: an academy girl, Princess: a wife, Gypsy: a free-spirited single woman, Diva: a wealthy entrepreneur, Collector: an art connoisseur. Over the years, I discover being a Diva is not limited to being a show off, self-important, pretentious, or even obnoxious. I'm certainly not an opera singer, the definition of the word Diva in Webster's dictionary. I define Diva as a person who is strong, self-aware, and free of society's boxes. Editorial Reviews Review "Diane's debut novel is a rich portrayal of her life's journey from early childhood to present day. From the very beginning her life was littered with difficulties imposed on her by dysfunctional family members. The artwork of her life circumstances could have easily painted her as a victim. Instead, she chose to be the victor. Rather than succumb to her circumstances, she bravely hurdled each roadblock coming out on top. Her resolve to be successful carried her through. Her writing style draws you into her personal journey. This honest account of her life required a level of vulnerability which creates an intimacy with her reader. The drama of her life both entertains and moves you. There were times I was laughing out loud at her comical predicaments. Still others were poignant and deeply touching. This book was an enjoyable and entertaining read. It is sprinkled throughout with descriptive gems that draw you into each period of her journey. It's a wonderful account of her life swept up into words and crafted into a memorable story." "What is a "Diva"? In her well-written and entertaining memoir, Diane Morrison truly redefines the term "Diva". Heart wrenching and humorous, Seven Lives: A Diva's Story profiles the author's journey from a childhood of betrayal to a fiercely independent and successful entrepreneur." "Half way through the book, Diane. I love it! Had no idea what an amazing writer you are! I can hear your voice as I read it. Heart wrenching and humorous. My ribs hurt from laughing..." "I'm loving your book Diane! It just spoke to me. You're just an incredible writer, so good!" "Your post about the book made me think about sneaking those Newport cigarettes in the attic. So proud of my big sis!" About the Author DIANE MORRISON has published and taught thirty graduate courses in the last twenty-one years. Seven Lives: A Diva's Story is the author's debut memoir. She is the founder of Diane Morrison Consulting and is a speaker, professor, life coach, and online gallery owner.

Emmerling ArtLover 5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating search of true self Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2021 Verified Purchase Just finished reading the book. Honestly it’s a great page turner, hard to put down. In my opinion it progressively gets better and better with most recent events ringing the most true. Loved reading about the healing journey. The combination of love affairs, travel and art is really exciting. Diane’s search for her true self and all the insights are fascinating. It takes a lot of courage to be so honest. It is likely that most relationships hit hard patches at times. It makes it easy to relate. Again, great read! I really loved it! Daniel A Dorr 5.0 out of 5 stars An inner invitation Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2021 Verified Purchase Enjoying and a pleasure indeed. But more so, because of your openness and vulnerability, I was invited look further into my inner spaces. TQ Riley Fedel 5.0 out of 5 stars Very pleased Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2021 Verified Purchase Book was great! Craig Jacobin 5.0 out of 5 stars An entertaining romp through life Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2021 A well-crafted page-turner, "Seven Lives" takes you on a journey through the writer's ever-evolving life and persona, leaving you wondering what the eighth life will entail. Her textured descriptions of places, people and events brings you right into the scene, be it the post-war 1940's or during the stressful early days of today's pandemic. It is interesting throughout with a few head-turning easter eggs along the way. Enjoy! BeandLive 5.0 out of 5 stars An Engaging and Compelling Memoir! Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2021 This is a page turner, with rich, sensory descriptions to transport you through time. A "coming of age" or NOT coming of age story that leaves me wanting more. I love being surrounded by inner thoughts, past and present stories with timeless appeal. Well done, Diva! Rita Chadwell 5.0 out of 5 stars Women, you have to read this book. Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2021 The honesty and vulnerability of this Diva, Diane, has really touched me. Her humor and ability to laugh at herself is refreshing. Her strength and positive attitude was able to get her through extremely difficult times, but through it all she shines. She is an example for women who, way to often, doubt what they can achieve. I want to live vicariously through her travels. Jarm Kendall CE Wilhelm 5.0 out of 5 stars Quick Entertaining Read Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2021 Everyone needs a DIVA in their life...if you don't have one....Diane Morrison would be my top pic. Lucky me. The book is entertaining and a fun insight into a life that has left nothing unturned. A must read when your stuck in the house or eventually on the beach!
