| Tabitha currently lives in Rhode Island, a few towns away from where she grew up. She is married, has four great kids, a spoiled Ragdoll cat, and lovable black lab. The house is noisy and the dinner table full! She holds a degree in Classics from College of the Holy Cross and taught Latin for years at a small, independent Waldorf school. She also worked in the admissions office there before turning her attention to full-time writing. You can visit her blog at www.tabithalordauthor.com where she posts author interviews, hosts guest bloggers, and discusses some favorite topics including parenting and her writing journey. Horizon is her first novel. |
As a ARIA board member and the host of the Authors Hour I am so excited that my fellow ARIA member Tabitha Lord Jorgensen just won a huge $8,000 national prize. Her book beat out over 2,000 other entries to win as the top indie book of the year in the Writers Digest awards. I read her book and then interviewed her live and told Tabitha she had a winner. The book has everything any reader could want. It's especially great when good things happen to good people! Congrats, Tab!
