Diana A Robbins

While "Eli and the Figure Eight" is a first book for author, Diana Robbins (AKA Unity Walker), she now has published three more books and is working on a new novel, an adventure in transcendence, titled "In League With Heaven."

Her first published work, Eli and the Figure Eight, is fiction, while the next book, When Love Goes Walking: Notes From My Inner Garden, is an anthology of her prolific Facebook writings, collected over the period of about one year. Now there is also "Naked, Beautiful Light: More Notes From My Inner Garden" and "The Key to Abundance: Not What You Thought (Or Were Taught) It Is."

Recovered from "religion" per se, Diana was born into a hyper-religious "Christian" family wherein she, like many of ALL generations and even of other religions, was mentally, spiritually, and otherwise abused and neglected. She became well-acquainted with abandonment and hunger, with deep degradation, and more--has even experienced homelessness. But she survived all that by the Presence of the ONE within her. She was--and still is--that proverbial "Child Who's Got Her Own."

Mother of three grown children and grandmother of six, Diana is a retired nurse, but has had a number of vocations and avocations, of which writing is only one. She describes herself as a "Jill of all trades and mistress of none," whose endless intellectual curiosity about the world at large led her down some blind paths as well as some dangerous ones. But at the same time, this curiosity and impetuousness, along with a plethora of hard knocks, helped her to see that there is a higher consciousness of life and love beyond the human experience--an experience beyond the limitations of mere human intellect.

When your gifts outweigh your perceived limitations, you find ways to survive and to transcend. But, guess what, reader ~~ WE ALL HAVE SUCH GIFTS, and in great abundance. We can all get in touch with our Higher (Divine) Self and transcend this often discordant and death-ridden human experience. It is not a matter of escaping anything, but of transcending what was never meant to be our experience at all.

It is this transcendence of a discordant life experience that Diana shares and writes about, with a passion born of this deeply felt experience of the inner Love in which we live and move and have our being.
