Hi, I’m Dane. Nice to meet you! I’m a published author and freelance writer with nearly fifteen years of professional experience. I write out of habit. It’s what I do. When I’m not working on behalf of my clients, I’m writing books of my own across various genres including supernatural thriller, literary fiction, and crime/detective. Before becoming a freelance writer, I worked as a social media specialist and executive in PR and creative agencies. When I’m not writing, I enjoy reading, making music, or running while listening to true crime podcasts.…Hi, I’m Dane. Nice to meet you!
