D.K. Dailey is an award-winning author (2022 IPPY Bronze winner & NEIA finalist) of a growing series in the Golden Dreg world.

Dailey has a problem: kind of like I see dead people but for writers. Good thing she fuels that creativity to build worlds and create people who do what she says-well, most of the time. She says, if she wasn’t a writer, she’d be just another nerd without a cause or direction.

Dailey’s writing journey started as a child when she began writing sci-fi short stories, a result of watching countless hours of science fiction shows with her parents. With an inborn passion for telling stories, and writing songs and poems, her hobbies erupted into a career path after she penned a play in college and then her first novel. As a writer of color living in Northern California, she’s immersed in a tapestry of culture and history that have consistently inspired and helped her pen numerous novels.
