Biography Tanja Janz belongs to the generation of cassette children and wanted to become a writer as a child. After she buried her big dream at the age of 11 and started a career as a teacher, the stories lured her back after a while. First, she bought back all the old radio play cassettes on the Internet (for which she paid a small fortune), which she had loved so much as a child and sold at flea markets in youthful recklessness. Then she also decided that it was finally time to write down all the stories that had settled in her head. Since then, she has been writing, and writing and writing. And she can't imagine a more beautiful profession.
