All work on this site copyright Tara West 2008.


A former Texas high school teacher, I'm taking a break to raise my baby girl. As a teacher, I used to
coach a UIL journalism writing team, advise the newspaper and yearbook, in addition to teaching
journalism, photography and English.  I can't wait for another classroom of my own. In the meantime,
I'll just write novels and design covers. That's right, I'm also a cover artist for

The Wild Rose Press.

I'd love to hear from
readers about my books
or my covers.
