Debut Author Podcast: Tatiana Goded

Born in Madrid, Spain, and trained as a scientist, Tatiana's passion for writing goes back as long as she can remember. After moving to New Zealand in her mid-thirties, she rediscovered storytelling and took creative writing courses at the New Zealand Writers College.

She won second prize in the 2014 "1st Letras Latinas Short Story Competition" (Alac Inc, Auckland) for "A Trip to Vienna," and in 2018 Letras Latinas Publishing House published her mini stories "Farewell" and "If I Went There for a Second Time" in English and Spanish. Alongside science, Tatiana works helping women in midlife reconnect with their passions. She loves reading, spending time with her daughter, dancing, tramping and travelling. After 14 years in New Zealand, Tatiana has now moved to Ireland with her daughter and their Golden Retriever.
