TammyJo Eckhart — I Call Them My Muses

Getting to know… Tammy Jo Eckhart.

Tell us a bit about your latest work.

True You 101 is my first YA novel to be published though not my first YA piece that I’ve written. The book follows Blake Trudeau during their second year at magic high school, a year when everyone takes a class that will challenge their views of themselves and others at the deepest levels before revealing who they truly are at the end of the year. While I didn’t write it to be a counter to a certain exceedingly popular magic school series, some folks think it is a nice change of pace that is meant to be inclusive of all people (or at least mages).

What happened in your life that prompted you to become a writer?

I’ve always written. My mother was a writer, small local publications, but since her health was quite bad, others often took care of me physically while she attended to my intellectual and emotional needs (bad and good). I think writing was something she could understand and thus encouraged in me.
