Writing Program Coordinator

Dana Long

Since she can remember, Dana has been making up stories. She began writing in grade school when she discovered creative writing was a legitimate course of study. She has written everything from fictional short stories to poetry to a current nonfiction work in progress.
Over the last 15 years, Dana has participated in various writing groups, leading the Huckins Writer's Guild for 4.5 years, and was an active member of the Boise Vineyard church's art ministry for nearly 7 years.

In 2017, Dana began her own business, Massive Happiness, having inherited the name from her late fiance. Since then, Dana has begun to set herself apart as a writing coach and editor while developing relationships with many amazing local colleagues and writers. She looks forward with great excitement to partnering with the GEM Center/Catalyst to create a place where writers can collaborate, learn, and propel their endeavors forward.

When Dana is not working, she thoroughly enjoys exploring the fabulous Idaho outdoors in her 4-wheel drive adventure-mobile by off-roading and camping as often as possible. When at home, Dana loves watching BBC TV murder mysteries, sipping a good wine, and snuggling with her adorable cat, Cally.
