Biography
Tabke started writing romances in high school, but was interrupted by college classes, marriage, four children, and building her successful business. When she returned to writing, it took her three years to sell her book, but she never gave up. Because of her positive attitude, her passionate characters, and gripping plots, she now has two series, Hot Cops and Blood Sword Legacy.[1] Her first Hot Cops book, Good Girl Gone Bad, was excerpted in Cosmopolitan Magazine.[2]
Tabke’s advice for other writers and anyone pursuing a dream is to never give up. “Believe in yourself and persevere,” she says. She’s a co-creator of Write Attitude[3], an inspirational website for writers. She’s a co-owner of WriterPromoTips, a Yahoo group for writers to share promotion tips. She has also been the president of SFARWA San Francisco Area Romance Writers of America for two years.[4]
Her husband, Gary, is a retired street cop turned football coach.[5] Recently she launched three contests on her blog that put fifteen aspiring authors before top New York agents and editors.[6]
