Penning WLW novel Afterlove, Tanya Byrne masterfully moulds romance and fantasy together. The result is the ultimate lesbian love story, and we’re obsessed.
Here’s what Tanya had to say about…
Going viral on TikTok…
“I had no idea any of it was going on until my 16-year-old cousin started sending me links”
Coming out…
“I never came out to my mother before she died because she was deeply religious”
Representation…
“True representation comes from being able to tell all stories, as messy and painful as they may be”
And her favourite aspect of Ash and Poppy’s relationship…
“How everything is an adventure.”
