A Novella - Release DEC 9, 2025 - I THOUGHT IT WAS A SIGN: The Life That Found Her When She Stopped Pretending

Dayna Mason (also writing as Dayna Reid) is an award-winning author, columnist, podcaster, and minister. She has written several bestselling books on weddings, funerals, love, and personal growth, as well as a children’s book, and now makes her debut in fiction (Coming Dec 2025). Born and raised in Seattle, she now calls Southern California home. Dayna has always been fascinated by what makes people tick and feels great compassion for the human struggle. She’s written dozens of articles and books to create awareness of options for overcoming challenges and realizing lasting health and happiness. Her lifelong commitment to inspiring people to make meaningful changes in their lives drives her every day. Helping is what fulfills her.

She grew up in a low-income neighborhood in the city of Seattle, surrounded by cultural, economic, and social diversity. This upbringing gave her an appreciation of all differences. She had two main loves: people and books. She spent most of her childhood either reading books, hustling to make money, or observing people and contemplating why they did the things they did. After officiating hundreds of weddings and collecting a variety of wording choices for creating ceremonies, she published the bestseller, “Do-It-Yourself Wedding Ceremony: Choosing the Perfect Words and Officiating Your Unforgettable Day” (now in its third edition).

Growing up in poverty, her only access to books was through the library. So, once she published her first book, her entire focus for the next year was getting the book into libraries. She wanted to make sure that lack of money would not prevent anyone from using the book to make their wedding day unforgettable.

Dayna still loves books and has been spotted at the library taking pictures of her books on the shelves.
