Prior to entering law school, Tana worked in Film Production and Publishing in NYC. Fast forward fifteen years to too many homicides and a Pushcart nomination, and the criminal defense attorney turned writer is now working on a genre-bending novel best described as Afro Fantasy/Paranormal Romance. 

For all of you who remember Avatar and the tree in Black Panther, she also recently did a Tedx Talk about the pre-historic Baobab, that inspired both stories. Have a look at "What the Tree of Life Can Teach us About Transitions."

MIDNIGHT BEACON (Summary) -

No stranger to hard times, visionary architect Camille Terrell thinks she can handle anything - until she's thrust center stage in an ancient battle between Gods who want to preserve the status quo and those who seek true liberation for all. She must now decide if her hard-won defenses are enough to take on the new reality of eternal love, magic, and her true identity as the long-lost daughter of the Haitian Goddess of Revolution.
