Tanner Blue Valerie Haynes Perry

What if you remembered being born? Imagine your awakening... Tanner Blue is an African-American woman named after the black painter, Henry Ossawa Tanner. She wants to honor the reputation of her namesake. Connecting her thirtieth birthday to her birth causes Tanner Blue to revisit her own potential as an artist, which was encouraged by her father and blocked by her mother. Destiny leads Tanner Blue to a magical world that tests her creative abilities and alters her relationship to reality forever. In a storytelling tradition similar to those of The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho and Illusions by Richard Bach, Tanner Blue is an invitation to discover where reality ends and imagination begins.
