Diane Farr (. San Jose, California) is an American historical romance novelist. She is best known for her Regency romance, published with Signet Regency romances. Her first book ''The Nobody'', her second book''Fair Game'' (1999) and her fourth book''Once Upon a Christmas'' were all finalists for the "Best Regency" RITA award in the year of their publication. Additionally, ''The Nobody'' was a finalist for the "Best First Book" RITA award〔http://www.thenonesuch.org/awards.html〕 and won ''Romantic Times'' magazine's Reviewers' Choice Award for "Best First Regency" in 1999.〔http://www.paranormalromance.org/reviews/author.php?id=1485〕 RITAs are awarded annually by Romance Writers of America Romance Writers of America.〔http://www.historicalromancewriters.com/AuthorInfo.cfm?AuthorID=517〕 However, her Regency romances which featured no sex scenes or mild sensuality (and were thus classified as traditional Regencies) weren't marketed properly, and didn't sell as much as expected. In the mid-2000s, Signet stopped publishing traditional Regencies and Farr lost her writing contract, shortly after publishing four longer traditional Regencies (which were wrongly marketed as Regency historicals). Farr then published a young-adult paranormal novel ''Wicked Cool'', published in 2010 by Cerridwen Press and subsequently offered in print form through CreateSpace by the author. She is also the author of ''A Month of Sundays'', and four short plays published by Russell House. Some of her books, long out of print, have been republished as e-books and are now available through the usual sources. She lives in northern California.〔http://www.historicalromancewriters.com/AuthorInfo.cfm?AuthorID=517〕 ==Works== *''The Nobody'' Signet Regency (1999) * ''Fair Game'' Signet Regency (1999), republished with some additions as ''Playing to Win'' * ''Falling for Chloe'' Signet Regency (2000) * ''Once Upon a Christmas'' Signet Regency (2000) * ''The Fortune Hunter'' Signet Books (2002), a longer traditional Regency * ''Duel of Hearts'' Signet Books (2002), a longer traditional Regency * ''Under the Wishing Star'' Signet Books (2003), a longer traditional Regency * , a longer traditional Regency *''Wicked Cool'', CreateSpace, 2010, ISBN 978-1-4563-4248-7 *''Playing to Win'' ISBN 978-1466296633, a longer version of ''Fair Game'' (1999) *''Scary Cool'', CreateSpace, 2012, ISBN 978-1480200777 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Diane Farr (writer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
