Dana Taylor writes books with a mystical touch. Born and raised in California, she attended the University of Redlands and received her B.A. with a theatre major. Her senior year sent her to Oklahoma for a theatre internship, which resulted in a whirlwind courtship and a long marriage. Her two romantic comedies, AIN'T LOVE GRAND? and DEVIL MOON: A MYSTIC ROMANCE (A Movers and Shakers List Title) are set in America's heartland. Opposites attract, loveable characters, and a good dose of laughter. Through the years, she and her husband raised two daughters and numerous animals, with varying results. A dog ate a hamster and the iguana escaped a homemade cage. One rabbit proved it could consume a remote with no ill effects (except to the remote.)The daughters turned out fine.Her imagination led her to writing romantic adventures, also with a good dose of comedy. ROYAL REBEL began as a Romance Writer's of America contest piece and grew into a full blown, spirited twist on the Robin Hood tale. PROUD HEART (summer 2014) centers on Rosa Dominguez, a Hispanic heroine inspired by Dana's grandmother. After losing her family to violence in Mexico, Rosa courageously joins the Oklahoma Land Run of 1889. The CHARMIN' WARRIOR, hero, Jaguar Jack, has a psychic bent that grew from Ms. Taylor's interest in paranormal and metaphysical matters. Nowadays when she isn't writing, she is often giving Reiki energy healing treatments. Her interest began with the charismatic spiritual movement and led to the study of healing modalities. She is a Reiki Master in Southern California. Her non-fiction book EVER-FLOWING STREAMS: TAPPING INTO HEALING ENERGY chronicles her spiritual journey into alternative healing. She explores spirituality, energy healing, and wonder at her blog SupernalLiving.com.And in all her spare time, she serves as President of the Board of the La Mirada Symphony Association.
