My big philosophy is: Try and work with good people, because the process is your life. That's going to be really, really hard. I'm glad I learned the lesson, 'Failure is OK.'

Personal life
Fox currently lives in Los Angeles California where Dana Fox works with fellow writers—who call themselves best friends—Diablo Cody (Juno) and Lorene Scafaria (Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist) in a writing group they jokingly call "The Fempire". She became an assistant to writers Alfred Gough and Miles Millar while they were creating the Superman television series Smallville and later worked for writer-director John August. Fox had not yet written a sample screenplay but Bendinger was so impressed with her ideas for the story that Fox was hired to write the script.
