About Me

Taquila Thompson is a 22 year old single mother from a small town in South Carolina called Ridgeville. After overcoming an abusive childhood she started to pick up her pen and begin writing poetry to find an escape from her life. It wasn't until after she tried to take her life twice and the birth of her second daughter at 19 that she decided to take her writing seriously. She has a children's series titled Not Your Ordinary Family that's for kids who are dealing with having an incarcerated parent that is loosely based off of her own experience and her experience with her oldest daughter's father. She also has a teen series for young girls that's out titled Never Been A Daddy's Girl which tells the dramatic stories of five young girls. Taquila currently resides in Summerville SC with her two daughters and is writing full time. Her goal is to touch every reader one at a time.
