Tina Haydamacha, a wife, mother and passionate writer is a former graduate of The Charles Morris Price School for Advertising and Journalism. The gravitational pull to write a story was always a dream, until one day during the pursuit of another passion within the science field, her English professor presented an opportunity to interpret Edward Albee’s, The American Dream. The arduous challenge put her writing to the test and by completion validated her love for the craft. Soon after, she was recognized by her professor, who made her critique of The American Dream available to all students as a reference guide in the college library. This experience reignited her passion for writing and led her to write a screenplay about the CIA takeover of Saturday Morning Cartoons now residing in the Writer’s Guild East. Growing up surrounded by an artistic family gave her the platform to begin her journey in writing, hoping one day to become a published author. The idea of bringing characters to life in a story she created led her to publish her first E-book - Monty the Magnificat in 2019. Her story continues with her second book - Teddy and the Mighty Yolo available now at your favorite digital stores. My experience has given me a glass half full, and a future filled with more stories on the way including, Shadow Giant - The Legend of Magic Island, presently a work in progress.
