Tara Heavey was born in 1970, missing the sixties by just ten days, in Croydon, London. The location of her birth is the only thing she has in common with Kate Moss, supermodel. She moved with her family to Dublin, Ireland at the age of eleven. She subsequently read Modern English and History at Trinity College Dublin, before studying law (why oh why) and practicing as a solicitor for five years (ditto).
She has three children, an assortment of pets, and lives in the picturesque countryside of County Kilkenny. She has had five novels traditionally published, including No.1 bestseller A Brush with Love, and has self-published eight novels. She has also published a non-fiction title, Nature Writing for Wellbeing, on the subject of journaling. Tara has also had short stories published in two compilations and had articles published in various national newspapers and magazines.
She has ghostwritten a novel and two memoirs, as well as working as a coach and editor. She is a certified journal instructor and has taught numerous creative writing classes, for both adults and children.
