UBAWA: Name 3 things about yourself readers may not know
Tanasia: 1. I'm really an introvert. I love talking to people, but I am most at peace when I am alone.
2. I am obsessed with the color black and animal print
3. All of my book ideas begin from dreams
UBAWA: What is your biggest inspiration?
Tanasia: Hmmm, hard question. I would say that my biggest inspiration is my husband. He is the reason I fight so hard for success. He never lets me doubt myself and he's always planning for the future. That alone makes me want to be the best I can be.
UBAWA: What led up to you becoming an author?
Tanasia: I've been an author as long as I can remember. I published my first book through a contest at my school when I was in the 3rd grade and minored in Journalism. Writing is in my blood.
UBAWA: How would you describe your writing style?
Tanasia: I would say versatile. I can take you from corporate America, to another world, through the hood and back again.
UBAWA: What would you say is the most important thing an author should do before publishing his/her book?
Tanasia: Do your research. Make connections with people in the industry and do your own research. Never take someone's word for it.
UBAWA: If you could go back and change one thing about your book, what would it be?
Tanasia: I rewrite to possibly lead to a spin-off with some of the other characters. There are a few of them that people wanted to know more about.
UBAWA: When you’re not writing, what are you doing?
Tanasia: Wow! I'm busy. I'm a wife and mother first. I'm a teacher. I shop, work on my blog, Musings of Susamae, travel, and try out new restaurants. I love an adventure and making memories with my husband and sons.
