Inspirations & Themes

Inspired by her mother’s gift for nurturing a love of reading, the adventurous spirit of her late brother Troy, and the unforgettable personalities of the horses she loved and raised, Taurie’s storytelling embraces both wonder and vulnerability.

Her fiction often explores:

  • survival and reinvention

  • found family and community

  • courage in uncertain worlds

  • the emotional cost of change

  • the connection between people, animals, and the worlds they inhabit

Whether writing science fiction or fantasy, her stories are driven by heart, resilience, and the unpredictable beauty of transformation.

The Regeneration Trilogy

Taurie’s debut novel, Brain Freeze, launches The Regeneration Trilogy—a speculative fiction saga set in the aftermath of a catastrophic neural network collapse.

Drawing from years spent working with students and navigating the complexities of everyday life, the series combines survival, emotional realism, and high-stakes speculative fiction in a world struggling to rebuild after collapse.

The trilogy continues to expand through future installments, companion stories, and new perspectives from survivors across the Regeneration universe.

Beyond the Page

Originally from the Pacific West Coast, Taurie finds inspiration in mountain forests, quiet landscapes, and the spirit of exploration that has shaped her life.

After putting herself through college in Rhode Island while raising a family and driving a school bus, she fulfilled a lifelong dream of bringing home her first horse, Jack—an Icelandic pony mix with the boldness of a stallion. Later came Kipper, a spirited Morgan-Quarter Horse cross whose personality left an equally lasting impression.

The people, animals, and experiences woven throughout Taurie’s life continue to shape the emotional core of her storytelling.

Featured Stories & Ongoing Work

In addition to The Regeneration Trilogy, Taurie continues to explore new speculative worlds through serialized fiction and short stories published online.

Her ongoing fantasy serial Artemis introduces readers to dragons, hidden sanctuaries, ancient prophecies, and the bond between a young boy and the dragon destined to change his world.
