Welcome, Readers!
I am so grateful for your interest in my work. Sometimes I still can’t believe I have five published novels! There is a part of me who will always be a student waiting to write a better story or novel. That’s why I love encouraging other writers and connecting to readers.
Thank you so much for stopping by. While you’re here, please explore the rest of the site to learn more about my books, life, and other information that you might find interesting.
All the Best,
Tina
Tina’s Latest novel is The Real Thing:
“A heartwarming—and heart wrenching—story of moving on, The Real Thing deftly explores stepfamilies and Alzheimer’s disease with plenty of intrigue and a healthy helping of romance. Tina Ann Forkner weaves a tale of love, loss, overcoming fears and, best of all, discovering what it really means to be a cowgirl.” ~Kristy Woodson Harvey, author of Dear Carolina and Lies and Other Acts of Love
