About
I'm a peace-loving writer and art lover in all it's forms - books, visual and performance art, theatre, comedy, music, film... I contribute interviews and reviews, from hip hop to "alternative" country. My work continues to appear in local and national magazines. I have a couple of local art and entertainment blogs that could use a few volunteers, diy revolution and Kill The Critic, and I'm working on an internet radio/podcast project called Rock The Pilot.
Besides writing about music and being a Facebook and "CrackSpace" addict, my other passions include writing poetry and fiction. You can read some of both at the incredible Haggard & Halloo, and my creative feminist zine The Lipstick Pages.
Whoa! I almost forgot to plug my official web site diydanna.com and two important personal blogs: Danna Williams: Surreal Estate Agent, where you can read published and unpublished creative writing and reviews, and A Surreal Estate Agent's Life, which offers support and advice to aspiring and established freelance writers.
If all of this is confusing, don't worry, you can follow my meandering ways @ friendfeed.com/diydanna.

Drop The Pilot?
I love the song and the title, made famous by singer/songwriter Joan Armatrading (and I think Mandy Moore does a respectable cover of the song). So much so, that if I ever start my own independent label, this is what I'll call it - Drop The Pilot. So consider it …
