D.G. Novak
D.G. Novak writes Erotic Fantasy Romance.
Dawn G. Novak was born one snowy January morning in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Even from a very early age, her artistic abilities became apparent. Before the age of seven, she had begun to draw and paint, and when she was eight years old she entered one of her drawings into the annual Calgary Stampede Art Festival. Those who knew her were not surprised when it earned her an honorable mention from the judges, no small feat for one so young. It was not long, however, before Dawn soon turned her growing talents toward the two other loves that would govern her life--music and writing.
From the very beginning, Dawn's teachers recognized and encouraged her writing skills. She won the Curtis Award in 1968, an honor given to the one student who, out of all the students in the province of Alberta, achieved the highest grade in literature. Still, Dawn soon found herself drawn more and more toward the world of music. At the age of thirteen, she taught herself to play the guitar and soon she and her two sisters were performing at local charity shows and church functions.
Ultimately, what had started as a bit of a lark turned into a career and Dawn would end up spending over twenty years on the road, performing across Canada and even recording in Nashville. Eventually her two sisters would drop out of the industry but still she continued on, playing in other bands along the way. However, it wasn't until she began her solo career that her old love, writing, began to push itself back into the forefront of her life. In 1981, Dawn began to write again. At first, it was simply to try and alleviate the boredom of life alone on the road. Soon it became much, much more. It became a burning desire to tell her own stories, in her own way. Extremely proud of her Irish heritage, and ever mindful of the legacy of storytellers in the grand tradition, she is constantly striving to challenge herself and to grow in her writing. She has now published two sci/fi/fantasy novels in her series about the race known as Shadrani: Prince of Gemen and Sons of Gemen. Today she lives in Phoenix and Mexico with her husband and two cats. Most of her time is spent with the newest loves of her life, the Shadrani.
