Dana is hungry for writing that is immersive and surprising, with a voice so distinct it makes her cancel plans and read through meals. She is attracted to upmarket and literary fiction for both adults and young adults and smart narrative nonfiction, essay collections and journalism about culture, social issues, science, feminism, race, gender, film and television, music, comedy, religion and place.  She'd love to read work that reckons with "low" or "unworthy" pop culture in a serious way, especially regarding art created for and consumed by teenagers, and stories set in and about the modern American South.  She is passionate about finding literary homes for underrepresented and marginalized voices.
