SHANN TAJIAH is an award-winning poet, photographer, and author of Scraps of Love: Poetry from the Darkest Night 1997-2010 and the Biblical fantasy, The Shaloma.

A Minnesota grown Texan, Shann began her writing journey when she was eight, and by age thirteen she was submitting for publication. She is currently hard at work on the second installment of the East of Eeden duology. She is also one half of the spectacular writing duo, T.L. Gabriel, where she writes about worlds beyond the stars. Her passion for writing and authors has led her to establish her publishing imprint, Ithirial Rising Press, and she is currently studying to be a certified book and writing coach.

When Shann isn’t lost in the world of words, she can be found working as an Activity Director in Long-term Care, daydreaming in her hammock, or caring for her furred and feathered menagerie.
