Dana Michelle Burnett

Carrying echoes of Amy Tan and Rebecca Wells, Dana Michelle Burnett’s debut novel Ghost Country takes the reader into the lives of three Cherokee women and the lives of their modern day daughters.

Here’s the set-up for Ghost Country by :


Told in a series of vignettes that alternate from the era of the Civil Rights Movement, Woodstock, and the Vietnam War, to the present day.


From the Author:  

Ghost Country features a glimpse into my own Cherokee ancestry mixed with fictional characters and compelling stories.  

“The idea for the novel sprang from the Cherokee heritage of my own family, from one generation to the next; our tie to the Cherokee has become less evident.

“With the birth of my daughter, I began to research our Cherokee lineage so that perhaps my daughter’s connection could be stronger than mine was.  During my research, these characters came to mind.  Ghost Country became the result.”

Dana Michelle Burnett spent most of her life writing short stories and sharing them with family and friends.  She was fresh out of high school when she earned a spot as a guest columnist for her local newspaper, The Tribune.  In the years that followed, her work was published in numerous commercial and literary magazines including Just Labs, Mindprints: A Literary Journal, Foliate Oak, and many more.  Her short story John Lennon and the Chicken Holocaust was included in The Best of Foliate Oak in 2006.

She took over the family’s successful home decor business, and is also author of Home Decorating For The Real World.
