Tara Goedjen

Tara Goedjen adores fairytales, mysteries, and ghost stories, and is the author of THE BREATHLESS, forthcoming 10/10/17 from Delacorte Press (Random House Children's Books). Tara wrote her first story at age eleven about children who disappeared at midnight, and she’s been writing ever since. Mostly raised in Alabama, she played college tennis in Iowa and then moved to Alaska and Australia before heading back to the continental US.While completing grad school, Tara worked as a tennis coach, a yoga instructor, a university writing teacher, and as an editor for a publishing house. These days, when she’s not making up stories, she's probably going for a hike, staring at a to-do list, reading a novel, or eating all of California’s seasonal fruit.
