Dana Claire is an award-winning author whose stories explore identity, fate and destiny in the crossroads of romance and adventure. But her writing career didn’t begin when she published her first book, The Connection, in 2020. It started when she was a young girl when her mother, an elementary school teacher, inspired her to create imaginary worlds between the pages.

Dana’s love of romantic tension, the supernatural and non-stop action has elicited very positive feedback from many readers, as their online reviews reveal her flair for spine-tingling action and unforgettable characters. But it’s not just readers who love her; literary critics have also taken note, and Dana was given the Children’s Moonbeam award for The Connection in 2021, a

But I’ll shorten my answer to save the readers from my soapbox. Aspiring authors, hear me roar! Take the time to learn the industry. Go to conferences, online/virtual events, speak to other authors, and do your research. And stay positive! Let me say that again, stay positive. Do not let self-doubt cloud your ability to fulfill your dream. You are good enough. Your story does need to be heard. And you do have an audience for it. Many writers get caught up in the insecurity of a lonely occupation. Make friends in the industry by joining writer groups, going to events, and staying connected online. My success as a writer is only partially from my deliciously captivating stories, the rest is from the love of my fans, my friends, and my family. Without them, I’d be still living my stories in my head rather than seeing them in print. (less)

Tolkien's Middle-earth. If I were able to visit, I would love to explore the majestic elven realms, wander through the lush landscapes of the Shire, and perhaps even embark on an epic adventure alongside hobbits, dwarves, and wizards. The rich history, diverse cultures, and magical creatures of Middle-earth make it an enticing destination for any lover of fantasy. And I do love fantasy. I'd also love to travel to one of my own book's world, Isle of Cava from War of the Sea. I'd love to explore the ancient Greek mythology in the castle and the infamous tavern named after Hermes.

Jenn The Graceling was a great choice, I just read that recently. Also mine would probably be Raven Boys. I find something new every time I read it. Thanks for the friend request!
