Her writing voice is distinctive and eclectic. Her approach to the dyslexia books is straightforward, offering nonfiction readers informative chapters, thought-provoking perspectives, and usable strategies.
Tiffany’s poetry mirrors her renaissance personality. Her collections parallel many categories as readers navigate emotionally charged themes of love, grief, abuse, inequality, and being mindful of the impact of technology on humanity. Tiffany interweaves, within the rawness of these emotions, her love of nature, its beauty, and the solitude of simply being.
She started writing poetry in fourth grade. Tiffany attributes her early influences to her mother who taught high school Honors English and Literature, music on the radio, and Emily Dickinson. She seeks inspiration from fellow authors, poets, and musicians. A handful of these individuals serve as her muse. For her, reading and writing are a luxury she never takes for granted.
