Always a lover of a good story, Tina started writing them as a child. Often making them a part of an assignment the teacher was not expecting. Favorite teachers encouraged, through school and theater, Tina continued to dream. Now just retired from 30 years teaching both special education and theater, Tina hopes to devote her time to writing and travel. You can often find her in the narrow streets of the UK’s oldest towns and castles as she finds inspiration around every corner. Tina loves a good read as much as the next person, and often leaves her Barnes and Noble book signings with an armload of new discoveries. Living in Bend, Oregon lends itself to be a great place to find the perfect mountain and lake view for a creative afternoon. Tina enjoys hiking, camping, Kayaking and hanging out with her husband and their dogs.
