Biography

Dana Wayne fulfilled a lifelong dream to become a published author at the age of sixty-six with her first book, Secrets of The Heart. Since then, she has self-published six highly regarded and award-winning novels as well as two cookbooks. Among the many awards her work has garnered is the prestigious international Best Indie Book Award for her fourth work, a contemporary romance entitled Chasing Hope, which also won the 2022 Bronze Medal in the Readers Favorite International Contest.

A strong advocate for new writers, she started a podcast in 2020 called A Writers Life where she shares her experiences and provides tips on writing as well as inspiration and education.

A sixth-generation Texan, she still resides in the Piney Woods. She is a sought-after speaker and a frequent guest on various writing blogs. A die-hard romantic, her heart-warming stories are filled with strong women, second chances, and happily ever after.

When she isn’t writing or spending time with family, she is an avid crafter, especially Christmas-related items, her favorite being tabletop Christmas trees, a craft she learned from her mother.

Smashwords Interview

When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?
I am an avid tent camper! I love to be outdoors and have been camping and fishing since I was a child. I also love dutch oven cooking and even teach classes on how to cook in them. I also enjoy photography and have shot everything from weddings and portraits to still nature and still life. And if all that weren't enough, I'm a pretty good cook!
What is your writing process?
I write every day. It may be a little or may be a lot but I write every day. I typically devote my mornings to things around the house since my husband likes clean clothes and food on the table :-) and then the afternoons to writing. I typically will have more than one story going at a time so if I get stuck on one, I move to another.
