She attended workshops where accomplished writers like Poet Haki Madhubuti, Novelist John O. Killens, Novelist/Short Story Writer Toni Cade Bambara, and Poet Sonja Sanchez taught persons interested in the craft of writing.
At Wilberforce University, Lana majored in mass media communications and sociology, earning a bachelor of arts degree. She also pursued a Ph.D. at the Union Institute and University. The course work enhanced her skills and furthered her desire to write.
