FAQs

No display
How can I get an ARC for You're Overthinking This?

The official ARC application will go live summer 2026. In the meantime, let me know you’re interested here, and I’ll email you as soon as the application is live!

How can I join your Discord server?

Subscribe to my newsletter here. The invitation will be in your welcome email. I can’t wait to welcome you to the group! 🥰

Are you available for freelance work?

Yes! I offer book marketing coaching to self-published authors, including services like book marketing plan creation, metadata optimization, promotion critiques, or answering a specific list of questions you have. At this time I’m booking all my client work through Reedsy, so please make a request there.

I also provide in-depth book marketing, writing, and publishing insights on the paid tier of my Substack. I’d love to see you there!

Where can I find your books' content advisories?

You can find up-to-date lists of content advisories in the FAQ sections of each of my book pages here:

Can you film a one-minute video for my class or book club?

Unfortunately, no—and here’s why. To add to this: it takes me much more than one minute to write the script, film (often a dozen+ takes!), and edit these videos, especially as someone who lives with body dysmorphia. The mental hurdle for me to get on camera is a lot. 

Please know that I’m so flattered that you asked, especially because many times it’s for an award or nomination, and I’m so grateful you’ve been sharing my book with your students or members. But since I get so many of these requests and each one takes me so much time and mental bandwidth, I no longer respond to these requests. Thank you for understanding.

Do you have a street team?

I’m flattered you’re interested! 🥹 I’m not running a street team at the moment, but the next time I have ARCs available, keep an eye on my social media for updates. In the meantime, my Discord reader group is a casual place to connect with me and fellow thriller lovers—subscribe to my Substack to get an invitation link!

Are you writing any sequels to your books?

I’m so thrilled you’re interested in a sequel! There are currently no plans for sequels for any of my books, but you can see how to help make it happen here!

🚨 SCAM ALERT 🚨

Unfortunately, scammers are regularly sending emails pretending to be me to promote their fake service.

I only ever send promo emails from diana AT dianaurban.com or dianaurban AT substack.com.

I do have a personal gmail that I use to email to fellow authors and industry folks, and frankly, I’m not sure what to do about that, as I don’t want to share it publicly. Sigh. But I never use it to solicit new clients, and going forward, I will only use diana AT dianaurban.com to connect with artists, narrators, etc.

If you’re ever unsure an email came from me, fill out the contact form above or DM me on Instagram and I’ll confirm. I’m sorry this is happening!

Are you open to blurb or event requests?

Due to my publishing deadlines and freelance workload, here is my current availability:

  • Blurb requests: closed
  • In-conversation partner: closed
  • Class visits: closed
  • Book festivals: open

For all requests, please contact my literary agent Jim McCarthy of Dystel, Goderich & Bourret LLC.

If I am currently closed to any of the above requests, thank you for understanding!

I have to write about you for my homework! Where can I find more info?

Check out my About page — I have a section right below my bio with more personal FAQs where you can find more information about me. Good luck with your assignment!

Are you writing any sequels for your books?

I’m so flattered you’re interested in a sequel—truly, it means the world to me that you want to continue hanging out with my characters. There are currently no plans for sequels for any of my books, but you can see how to help make it happen here!

Can I ask you a question about BookBub?

I haven’t worked at BookBub since 2022 and wouldn’t want to lead you astray with outdated information! Please email your questions to partners@bookbub.com instead.

Do you use AI?

Nope. Not for my books, newsletter, promotional images, social media content—nada. The illustrators who designed my covers (as commissioned by my publishers) have not used it in their work, either. I do love my em-dashes though and will defend them to the death.
