She admits that an injury to the wrist may well be the reason why she chose to write over a career as a comic-book artist. "It sort of found me," she says, referring to her passion for the narrative. "I had to put the whole comic book thing on the shelf while I waited for my wrist to heal. I started writing to keep the creative juices flowing and after the first chapter I realized that this was what I wanted to do." In the Fall of 2000 A Secret Revealed was brought to life. It is now available in print through blood, sweat, tears, and a touch of pride. An accomplished weightlifter and bodybuilder, Tanya divides her time between the gym, full time employment, and honing her craft. Her short story, A Debt Repaid, won the 2005 Island Writers Fiction Contest, and recently, The Dead Pool received Honourable Mention from L. Ron Hubbard's Writers of the Future for the 2007 January - March quarter. Tanya is currently working on two full-length novels, including a sequel to A Secret Revealed. A huge reader, her favourite all-time author is Alexandre Dumas, and she has modeled her characters on the much-loved musketeers.view less
