Tania Tirraoro was born in Wales and raised in the North West of England but now resides in leafy Surrey with her husband and two sons.
She spent a decade working as a broadcast journalist and newsreader which has been the inspiration for This Last Summer.
Tania has a website at http://www.tirraoro.com, a blog, http://notasadvertised.blogspot.com and a website helping parents with special needs education, http://www.specialneedsjungle.com. Both Tania's sons have Asperger Syndrome and so the Asperger's character of Ben in This Last Summer is written from the heart.
Tania has also just published a book aimed at helping parents get the special educational needs help their child may need.
