Meet Tashima
Living in the Sunshine State most of her life; Tashima is a mom of two wonderful crazy kids, while also working full-time in the healthcare industry for almost 20 years and counting. However, her passion is in creative writing, screenwriting, and whatever else the flavor of the week is. Never a dull moment and always keeping busy.

Meet Maggie
When she is not keeping up with her two rambunctious boys or working, Maggie can be found creating various things, crafting or reading. A lifelong Floridian, she enjoys spending her leisure time at the beach and revels in the year round sunny climate. Maggie is a hardcore goal setter and thoroughly enjoys checking items off of her constantly growing to-do list.
