I was born Tina Marie Power on a warm, lazy July evening in the Capital city of Newfoundland and Labrador. The only child of two morally strong, hard working, salt of the earth couple who's love for each other, and for me was boundless. I began to write at the age of 8 years old when I wrote my version of the bible story, The Good Samaritan. When I received rave reviews from my teacher and classmates, I was inspired to continue with the hobby that quickly became my passion. This passionate affair has been ongoing for 30 years now and there are no signs of it waning. Though, I will admit for a time when I was pregnant with my own first born son, Christian, the affair cooled. Cooled, but never faded, I soon found out when the desire to write came calling once again when I needed to find a way to cope with heartbreaking news. I always knew that there was something wrong with Christian from the moment he was born, I and the doctors, just could not put their finger on it. While physically, Christian thrived, mentally/emotionally not so well. His behaviours were a little disturbing. Finally after 9 years of pulling my hair out, and slipping into some pretty dark places myself, he was diagnosed with Autism. My method of coping was to write a story about his/our journey called Forever Christian. Passion renewed. Now, a girl can only write about real life for so long without jumping back into the world of make believe. Venturing into the world of the supernatural, Ghosts, witches, werewolves and my personal favourite, Vampires. I enjoy all sorts of vampires and I admit I am fascinated with the modern romantic kind, aka the Cullen and the Salvatores of this world! However, I wanted to bring the vampires into the real world where they face real issues that us mortals struggle with. Thus began the weaving of tale of my first book, I am proud to say, published here on Amazon Kindle! Destiny of the Vampire has been born! It is my sincerest hope that I will be fortunate enough for this story to find its way into your hands and that you will enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed writing it for you. I also hope that this could be the start of a wonderful audience/author relationship and that we can share many tales together. My best to you, Tina
