What the Lake Knows
Devienne Weekes is a Montana-based author whose work explores the intersection of place, memory, and time.
​
Drawing inspiration from the landscapes of the American West, she writes stories rooted in locations where the past still lingers—submerged towns, abandoned communities, and the spaces history has left behind.
​
She holds a degree in elementary education with endorsements in reading and instructional media and has spent over a decade working in education. Her background in literacy and storytelling continues to shape her approach to writing.
​
Devienne lives in southwest Montana, where the land itself carries echoes of what came before. Her debut novel, What the Lake Knows, reflects her interest in hidden histories and the quiet ways the past continues to shape the present. Her upcoming work expands on these themes through historical fiction and time slip.

A Literary Imprint
Caboose Canyon Press
Deeply rooted in the vast silence and rugged beauty of the American West, Caboose Canyon Press is an imprint dedicated to atmospheric, place-driven fiction. We believe stories are born from the landscape itself—the whispering pines, the shadowed lakes, and the echoes of the canyon walls. Our mission is to amplify voices that explore the intersection of human emotion and the untamed wilderness, crafting literary journeys that linger long after the final page is turned.
