Dana Thomas Weber

Dana weaves decades of east coast, deep south, and international travel into playful storytelling tinged with bigger ideas and the often-inexplicable ways of the universe. Countless backroads, waterways, small towns, big cities, odd occurrences, and curious characters have wandered into her fictional and first-hand accounts published by outlets such as: Florida (An Anthology), Trail Towns, Aftermath (a post-pandemic-related anthology), The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, and various travel and tourism publications.

As an elementary teacher, she transforms young writers into young authors through her youth writing intensive program where student work is published in the annual anthology, In a Flash. Adults with a story to tell have benefitted from her program, A Novel Approach, which tailors a simplistic writing process to emerging authors.
