About this author

Telling stories since before she could read, T.L. Gray has a huge imagination. However, being an author wasn't even on the radar until 2008. Before that, she climbed her way up the corporate ladder, started her own company from the ground up, and then walked away from it all to pursue her passion of writing full time in 2010.

Now she uses the skills, knowledge and experience she gained in business and marketing, to clear her path toward literary success.





Every once in a while I come across a new talent that makes me stop and consider my self, my writing style, and my writing goals. Many in the business of writing, unfortunately, see fellow writers as competition. While that is a partial truth, most view competition as an opposing force or something to overcome. I see it as a motivator, inspiration and a fulcrum lever to help me lift my dreams o... Read more of this blog post »

message 43: by T.L.

T.L. Gray Today my final draft of Milledgeville Misfit flies off to my publisher. That's it - no more changes, no more edits, no more second guessing if I should have added or removed something. It's done, it's recorded, it's complete.

The paperbacks roll off the printing press on January 31st, and the title should begin popping up in places for purchase.

That marks the end of a five year process from inception, writing, shelving for a few years, re-visiting, editing, editing, re-writing, editing, submitting, first galley, editing, editing, re-submitting, second galley, editing, adding, editing, and final submission.

Whew! It really takes a lot to birth a new book. Now that I've released it into the world, it's time to focus on the others that have been conceived and desire to be delivered.

T.L. Gray No matter how many rounds of edits you do, you ALWAYS find something you missed the first hundred times.

message 24: by T.L.

T.L. Gray I cannot even begin to express how much fun I'm having while writing "Hunter & Chase". It's like a breath of fresh air, the beginning of a romance, the invitation to the ball.

It came out of nowhere; unplanned, unexpected and unscheduled, yet totally awesome. I don't even know what's going to happen next. I find out as I'm writing it, and I love these kinds of stories best.

My schedule is so full right now, I would have never even contemplated the idea of a new story, but when it comes it comes and time is to be made to accomodate it, and guess what??? It happens.


message 23: by T.L.

T.L. Gray Another book is being launched into the world. Now to Polish another one eagerly waiting their turn to shine.


message 22: by T.L.

T.L. Gray Got a new release this month. Not my book, but one I've edited. "As For Me & My House" by Rev. Daniel L. Patrick from Vabella Publishing. Look for it on Amazon soon.


message 21: by T.L.

T.L. Gray I seem to find myself in one of those "I don't know what I want to read" kinda moods. I've tried a few different things, but none of them do anything for me. It's like having a mid-night craving, but you don't know what it's for.

T.L. Gray I'm upset the new Jane Eyre movie isn't playing at a theatre near me.


message 19: by T.L.

T.L. Gray I really want a Kindle 3G w/Wi-Fi! Do you know how hard it is to hold a paperback with both hands while you're on treadmill? A Kindle would fit securely hands-free right in front of me.

message 15: by T.L.

T.L. Gray Though I thouroughly enjoy getting lost in a great adventure, I hate the duldrum slide that follows. I've got too much work to do I don't have time to get lost in another adventure to fill the void.
