Dani Mac
Dani is a self-employed hustler and has had many prestigious jobs within the arts: actor, tea-maker, floor scrubber, toilet-cleaner, and more (including this one time when she was paid to let Doctor Who play the spoons on her bottom... don’t ask). She studied acting at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and is a qualified fight director, living in Brixham with three little girls who regularly beat her up. Dani graduated from the MA in Writing for Young People with distinction and in 2023, was awarded a DYCP grant from Arts Council England to explore a new middle grade novel idea inspired by her experiences growing up as a neurodivergent young person.
