In addition to being an author, she is the proud daughter of former Black Panther William Garland and half-sister to the late, renowned Tupac Shakur. She has been featured in publications such as XXL Magazine and Don Diva Magazine, featured twice in the Top 10 Urban Books Listing. Although Takerra has been approached for ghostwriting offers as well as publishing offers from some of the top names in urban fiction, she has opted to remain focused on the goal of building her own publishing house with her business partner, Sandra Mobley. Takerra and Sandra have launched Angelic Script Publishing to give new edgy writers a chance to demonstrate their talent and to give readers and lovers of Contemporary Fiction, new and exciting books to fall in love with. Writing continues to be Takerra's first love however, and her work has been appraised by many veteran African-American writers. She was born in Jersey City, NJ and resides in Somerset, NJ. Look forward to more works and projects from Takerra!
