***NOTE: All SIX books in After the Crash are available. Read the whole series now!!!*** I'll jump right into why I'm here: I LOVE to read. I was one of those kids that was never without a book. Or two...or three. If I had a spare minute, whether in class or on the bus or late at night when I should have been asleep; I was reading. I also always wanted to be a writer. I wrote my first short story when I was eight on an old typewriter, with lots of whiteout (the kind you had to hold in front of the key and re-type to make it cover it). Finally, at 43, I accomplished my dreams. Thanks to the Indie platform I was able to publish my first book. Seven years later I have over forty, and I am absolutely thrilled to be able to connect with other like-minded authors, and especially readers, here on Goodreads. That people are reading my stories and enjoying the worlds I am creating exceeds my expectations, and I'm looking forward to where this might take me. Now...for those that like the more formal blurb: :) Author Tara Ellis lives in a small town in beautiful Washington State in the Pacific Northwest. She enjoys the quiet lifestyle with her two adult kids and several dogs. Having been a firefighter/EMT and working in the medical field for many years, she now spends her time on family, photography, and creating various worlds, mysteries, and countless adventures.
