Get to know me 💕

I’m Taylor, better known as author Tay Mo’Nae. I’ve been creating stories centered around black love for seven years now. One of my favorite things to do when I’m not writing is baking. On top of that, I enjoy binging anime, crime shows, and comedy movies.

Some more facts about me:

I’m a Scorpio

I love almost anything strawberry and lemon

I’m a gamer girlie

I have two dogs, that are basically my kids lol

... Read moreAs an author, my world often revolves around crafting intricate plots and heartfelt dialogues. But what truly fuels my creativity? It's a blend of quiet moments, my furry companions, and a steady stream of coffee! Many wonder how I juggle writing black love stories for seven years with all my other passions. It's a journey, for sure! Let's be real, mornings almost always start with a strong cup of coffee. It's not just a drink; it's practically my muse! That warm mug in my hand often accompanies my early brainstorming sessions, helping me outline the next epic romance or thrilling plot twist. Without my daily dose, I'm pretty sure my characters would be a lot less lively! This coffee addict lifestyle truly powers my day. Speaking of writing, diving into black love stories has been my passion for seven incredible years. It's more than just putting words on paper; it's about building worlds where love, resilience, and joy truly shine for my community. I find inspiration everywhere – from the real-life stories around me to the fantastical narratives I binge-watch. Every character, every struggle, every triumph is a piece of my heart poured onto the page. Sometimes, the best plot twists come to me while I'm kneading dough or navigating a tricky level in a video game! Baking is my ultimate stress reliever and a creative outlet that contrasts beautifully with writing. There’s something so satisfying about following a recipe, watching ingredients transform, and smelling fresh-baked goodies. My love for strawberry and lemon isn't just for eating; it often finds its way into my kitchen experiments! I love trying out new recipes, especially for cakes and cookies. It’s a different kind of storytelling, one that uses flavors and textures instead of words. And then there’s my inner gamer girlie and anime lover! When I need a complete escape from my own fictional worlds, I dive headfirst into others. Whether it's exploring vast open worlds in a new RPG or getting lost in the captivating narratives of an anime series, these worlds refuel my imagination. They teach me about character development, world-building, and pacing in a way that’s both entertaining and inspiring. Crime shows and comedy movies? They're perfect for unwinding after a long writing session, offering a different cadence and perspective. My two dogs? They truly are my kids, providing endless cuddles, comic relief, and a constant reminder to take breaks. They’re often sprawled out beside my desk, offering silent companionship as I write. Their playful barks and wagging tails are the best mood boosters, especially when I'm stuck on a chapter. Being a dog mom has taught me so much about unconditional love and patience, lessons that subtly weave their way into the relationships I craft in my stories. They're my little furry supervisors and the best proofreaders for a good belly rub! My life wouldn't be complete without my amazing fur babies. Being a Scorpio, I'm told I have a passionate and determined nature, which definitely comes in handy when I'm facing writer's block or trying to perfect a tricky scene. That intensity drives me to keep honing my craft and exploring new depths in my stories. It's all part of the unique blend that makes me, me!

I just looked you up on goodreads, and you have written so many books! 😲 And they get great reviews, which says so much since GR has rough reviewers. Great job! 👏👏👏
