Dayna Dunbar is an award-winning novelist published by Ballantine Books. As a child, she was an avid reader of classic novels and wanted to tell stories like the ones she read. Her first foray into creative writing was in an elective screenwriting class in college, but the teacher was very discouraging, and it made her believe she would never succeed as a writer. After graduating Magna Cum Laude in 1990, Dayna searched in several cities and in many jobs for her place and her purpose. It wasn’t until June1994 when Dayna had an encounter with an extraterrestrial being of light while camping in Sedona, Arizona and got guidance that she would one day write about this race of beings that she began her writing journey.

Knowing that creating an awakened world with well-developed characters and a compelling storyline was far beyond her skills at that time, she followed guidance and began writing screenplays. She worked on the crew of the film William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet starring Leonardo DiCaprio, and this spurred her creativity even further. After finishing the film, she moved to Venice Beach, California and wrote four screenplays in four years, teaching herself writing and storytelling through doing the work and getting feedback from industry professionals.

Dayna attended the University of Santa Monica and received her master’s degree in spiritual psychology. As part of this program, she wrote her first novel, The Saints and Sinners of Okay County, a story about Aletta Honor, a woman who overcomes her self-doubt and shame to follow her own inner voice and find her authentic self. This novel is set in Dayna’s hometown of Yukon, Oklahoma in 1976, a very memorable year for the author. Upon graduating, Dayna received the University’s Student of the Year award along with bestselling inspirational author Iyanla Vanzant. Shortly after graduation, Dunbar’s first novel was published to excellent reviews and awards. Her second novel The Wings That Fly Us Home, a sequel to Saints and Sinners, also garnered wonderful reviews.

During this time, Dayna began ghostwriting memoirs for clients as well as writing coaching. Then, in 2014, almost exactly twenty years to the day that she had the ET encounter, she was finally guided to begin the novel that began the whole journey, and she received the idea for the novel, Awake: The Legacy of Akara, a spiritual sci-fi thriller about an awakened race of beings. She wrote the first draft, but as originally believed, it turned out to be an enormous undertaking, and in order to complete it, she began working with the brilliant Julia Nadine Padawer, who she met at the University of Santa Monica. Together, they labored for seven years to perfect the manuscript and are thrilled to share it with the world at this turbulent time in the evolution of human consciousness.
