When did you first know you wanted to be a writer?
I’ve always written – since I was a child. My first poem was published at the age of seven, and I wrote my first ‘book’ when I was 10, so I guess it’s been a lifelong love. I actually wanted to be a graphic designer through most of my teens… it wasn’t until I had my first magazine article published at 19 that I knew without a doubt that writing was what I wanted to do. It would take me another 20 years to begin getting serious about children’s books, though.
What was your road to publication like?

What an interesting interview! Tania, your Riley books sound terrific! Thanks for sharing :)
Thanks Susanna. Tania's books are fantastic! They tick all the boxes for me. I love photography, learning about places all over the world, especially with an adventurous, fun loving character! Well done, Tania!
