Danielle DayneyBorn and raised in Ohio, Danielle Dayney got her start writing rock concert reviews and band interviews for Toledo-based music magazine "The Glass Eye." After leaving Ohio, she set aside her journals for several years to work in the real estate indusry, but after her mother passed away from cancer, she returned to writing, initially as a cathartic way to understand her grief. Since then, her work has appeared in "The Fredericksburg Literary and Art Review," online at "Sunlight Press," "Dead Housekeeping" and "The Mindful Word," and in several anthologies including "The Virginia Writers Centennial Anthology," "Nevertheless We Persisted," "Beach Reads: Lost and Found," and "Beach Reads: Adrift." She has also received awards for two creative nonfiction essays at BlogHer. Danielle lives in the rolling hills of Virginia with her husband, two daughters, and two dogs.
