Tanya D. Dawson

Tanya D. Dawson is a happy writer of fiction which she will tell you is “way more fun” than her previous work writing cybersecurity policies and documentation. She has emerged from a life-long career in defense and intelligence as a fresh voice. Tanya brings exciting, beyond-normal fiction with a sparkling light for YA readers without plummeting into the deep darkness. Though fictional, her work is authentic, engaging, diverse, and empowering.

Random past stuff she doesn’t bring up in casual conversation—first born; high school Spanish Club president, year book and newspaper staff; read original poetry in a Berlin finger-snapping venue; certified PADI diver; magazine editor; brief summer stint as a regional child actor; and once jumped on a train to get to the other side of the track, among many other blunders.

Midwestern born, avid reader, and veteran of both USAF and USAF Reserve, Tanya lives in the American Southwest with her amazing husband, a fellow Star Trek and Star Wars fan, surrounded by a forest of mesquite trees and creosotes.

Before you go, please remember that—when, not if— life gets stumbly, scary or confusing, you get to choose where your mind dwells, where your eyes rest, what and who you listen to, what you say, and what actions you will take (now or later), if any. Ask yourself, “What’s the best that can happen?” Luther would inspire and encourage us all to look up, focus on the good we wish for ourselves and others, and share our light with the world!

I am grateful to so many, including you, my readers, my very important persons. Many people helped to make "Andersen Light" a reality for you. Be sure to check out my acknowledgements in the back of the book!
