Guest Author Tasha Wright

 As regular readers know, today is MY BIRTHDAY!  And to keep me from having to do an exorbitant amount of work, I've got a GUEST author today to tell us about herself and her book.  I love reading these author's bios and seeing how it plays into their work, and I feel quite a lot of affinity for Tasha's approach... maybe you can spot it.  Anyway, WELCOME TASHA!

~~~~~

My name is Tasha Wright and I am an author currently signed with Passionate Writer Publishing Inc. I am the author of When a Tattered Past Catches You and soon to come, Carelessness of the Heart. My passion for writing comes from the idea of creating lives and causing chaos! In my personal life I do my level best to avoid any type of drama and unnecessary ordeals. However, that’s where my writing comes into play. I have the ability to live out things that go on in everyone’s mind. But, because of life and consequences we never get the chance to live those thoughts out. Lol


I create a range of characters. They are all different. They are mild mannered, wild, intelligent, care free! No one character is the same. When I write my characters somehow evolve into their own being. Some way they jump out and they’re born into my work and in each book you will fall in love with, hate or become strangely fascinated with them. I currently began writing for an online literary soap with Writer’s Inn. You check out all my work on m website, I always love to hear from my readers:

Inspirations to writing

My inspirations to writing are actually my Grandfather, Johnnie Henderson. He always strived to obtain everything out of life and that is something that I have always tried to mimic from him. I lost my grandfather when I was sixteen years old but I have never lost sight of the things he instilled in myself and my bothers. He has always told us to never live by what other people may think of us good or bad. Always do what makes you happy! Those words have allowed me to conquer my GREATEST dream in life and that is having the opportunity to publish my books. He is and always will be my Inspiration to writing!

Thanks so much for the birthday wishes, everyone! And Tasha, I LOVE your goal of creating characters and then giving THEM the chaos you are trying to avoid in your own life. That is something I try to do too--keep the chaos on the PAGE... doesn't always work. And I love inspirational grandparents, having had a couple...

*giggles at Jan's chant* I'm going to be singing that today.

Happy birthday, Nekkid T.~
Loved the guest post; I agree writing's a great way to deal w/life (do "therapy"). I often find I do that--sometimes I'm even aware of it! Ha! :o)

Happy Birthday my dear!
How awesome, to have your grandfather be a source of inspiration is wonderful. I'm severely attached to my grandparents and they are such great motivators and one gives me priceless advice (in his own right, none of it really makes sense but I try to break the code on his riddles)
Thanks Tasha for sharing :)

Um... *giggle* I meant 'SUCH' a great interview. That was not a Freudian slip!

Hart Johnson said...

Thank you, so much everyone for all the birthday wishes!

Leigh, I'm giggling about the (sometimes intentional) therapy of writing--so true!

And YAY grandparents! (again)

Thank you all for stopping to visit!
