Welcome to danaCreative.net and thank you for visiting. 

danaCreative is a brand.  It’s my brand.  It grew out of my penchant for writing, and it is the product of my desire to take a seed of writing talent and help it grow into something bigger.  Hopefully, with time, experience, opportunity and luck, it will continue to grow into something greater as well.

The Creative part of danaCreative is pretty self explanatory.  I enjoy writing.  I love taking words, phrases and concepts and producing a finished product, big or small, that creates some form of literary value for someone else.  It’s the written synergy of words and the power they possess in the mind of reader as she or he consumes them.  Creativity is a gift.  When crafted with delicate passion and devotion, it is transformed into art.  Still, creating with words on a blank page is an evergreen process, one which requires a level of commitment and the patience to endure failure and critique.  In many ways writing is like golf; it takes years just to be bad.

The dana aspect of my brand is an homage to my children and is a play on their names.  Many would question why my daughter Natalie, who is older than her brother Daniel, is not listed first.  The reason for this apparent slight is had I listed her first, the brand would be nadaCreative and then I’d be left with, well, nothing.  In essence, I’d be the Chevy Nova of writing.

The goal of danaCreative is to serve as a vehicle, both personally and professionally, for my writing.  Within the pages of this site, you’ll find more information about me as well as my collection of creative writing efforts.  For more information on my commercial efforts, please feel free to visit danaCreative.com

I hope you take some time to explore the site, and I hope the contents that lay within will keep you amused, entertained, and perhaps even impressed.  Nearly five years have passed since my first ever blog post, and as my writing has grown and evolved, so has emerged the need to grow and evolve this site.  I hope you enjoy. 

Thank you for your time, and your feedback is always appreciated.
