Dan Holloran Writing | Content Writer, Fiction Author, & Screenwriter

About Me

Hi there! I'm a fiction author, screenwriter, content writer, and digital marketer. I write books, scripts, and business content. Oddly enough, I graduated from the University of Denver with a bachelors degree of finance and a minor of management. It wasn't until after graduation that I truly realized my love for reading and writing. It became an obsession to craft good stories and characters. Additionally, I developed an interest in web development so I learned HTML5, CSS3, WordPress, and began working minimally with Adobe Creative Cloud, primarily Photoshop & Illustrator. I love to write, meet new people, and stay active in the community. In my spare time you'll find me reading, playing sports, listening to music, or learning something new. I guess you could say that I simply enjoy the art of telling a great story. I'm so thrilled to wake up, smile, and live my dream each and every day as a writer!
