edit data

Elizabeth Tai wrote her first book when she was 12. It was a non-fiction book about astronomy which she wrote on A4 sheets of paper stapled together. She also drew her own comic books in exercise books.

This no-holds-barred passion for sharing stories and indie publishing followed her through adulthood. She published her first novel online in 2002 and decided that she really loved this brave new world of digital publishing. Now her tools are her battered MacBook Air and the World Wide Web.

Currently, she writes mostly non-fiction and memoirs. However, she also writes science fiction as Tai Weiland.

I won't be blogging on Squarespace anymore

Just a quick note that I will no longer blog on this website until I complete my migration to Wordpress.com’s hosted services. I’ve detailed my reasons in my Jan 2023 Now update.

It’s going to be a long, involved process which will probably take me about 3 months or, hopefully, less.

While I sort things out in the migration front, I will still be writing at these places:

“Once not okay has happened in a big way for you, either repeated too often or occurring in a whopping all-at-once stressor, “not okay” is no longer just a guest; it becomes a needy roommate, always nagging you to do what it says.”
