Tina Traverse is a passionate writer, avid reader; a self-proclaimed Autism Warrior Mom and Proud Newfie Gal. Tina hails from a quaint little hamlet on a quaint little island known as Canada's youngest province, Newfoundland. The desire for writing came at an early age when she wrote her spin on the Bible's Good Samaritan story for her third-grade class. When she fell off the traditional publishing path, Tina stumbled onto an exciting new path called, self-publishing. It's been a thrilling journey, publishing not only her work, but being a part of numerous anthologies. In her spare time, Tina enjoys leisurely strolls in the great outdoors, playing Thomas the Tank Engine with her youngest son and being beat at Wii bowling by her teenage son. Tina lives with her husband of too many years to count, in a scenic town by the bay.
