She
recently assumed copyright privileges to her first book, "A Life Not My
Own", and re-published it independently.
Tina shares her personal experiences of child abuse and neglect, her
struggles as a teenager and in her young adult life. Read about her time at the
university and in the US Army. This book started as a journal, an attempt to
address many of the secrets she had pushed to the back in
her mind. As the memories continued to resurface, she was
forced to address the issues that ultimately led to her sharing her past with
readers all of the world as a powerful force of inspiration.
In the 5 STAR rated, FREE eBook,
"Just Between Us - Inspiring Stories by Women", Tina joined forces
with Janice Ross, Selena Haskins, Adrienne Thompson, Tamika Christy and Nicole
Dunlap as they share a collection of short stories about the life challenges
that they overcome. This book continues
to rank in the top 100 of several Amazon.com categories.
In, "Struggles of the Women
Folk", Tina creates an engaging, fictional, though powerful piece from the
stories that her grandmother shared with her as a child. The main character -
Georgie is a young black girl who grows up the 1940s in southern Virginia - a
time of prejudice, poverty and limited opportunities.
"Tethered Angel" is PART
TWO - Struggles of the Women Folk. This story shares what happens to Georgie's
daughter Angel after her abduction. Angel has a special gift hearing the
thoughts of the people around her, but only if she reminds pure in mind and
heart.
Tina considers herself to be a
conduit for the fictional characters who speak to her and refuse to be quiet
until their story is told. Tina writes
to capture her reading audience and enrich their lives through her introduction
of rich characters and bold story telling.
Tina welcomes you to showcase

inspirational stories of encouragement.

What was the inspiration behind The Struggles of Women Folk?
I was inspired by the stories that my grandmother shared with
me about how life was back in the day.
As a child, she lived in the “country”, southern Virginia. I was intrigued by her stories and found
myself taking the liberty of filling the blanks when her stories were
incomplete.
What is your favorite part of the story and why?
I really like the surprises that occur throughout the
story. One of my goals is to engage the
readers. Placing twists and turns in the
story supports my goal.
Tell us about any recent works or what’s in the hopper for you~
I am working on a
new book, with a brand new set of characters.
It is still a story about personal relationships and turmoil. I am excited to see how the story unfolds.
What type of genre do you enjoy reading?
I
don’t have a particular genre. I simply
enjoy “good writing”. I want to be
engaged, swept away within the pages of the book.
