Formerly the publisher of Savvy Woman magazine and a business consultant to Fortune 500, Talia Carner is a fiction writer whose first novel, PUPPET CHILD, was listed in The Top 10 Favorite First Novels 2002 (BookBrowse.com). Her second, CHINA DOLL, was an Amazon bestseller. Both novels garnered over dozens of rave reviews and close to 100 keynote speaking invitations. Most importantly, Carner has become an advocate on behalf of the social issues behind her writing. For children victims of our legal system (PUPPET CHILD), she introduced The Protective Parent Reform Act, which has already passed in a few states and is in front of the legislature in many others, and became the platform for two State Senatorial candidates. CHINA DOLL became the platform for Carner’s March 2007 presentation at the U.N. on infanticide in China and the op-ed articles she’s published.
Author Talia Carner’s other writing credits include two essays that won Writer's Digest writing competitions and approximately 20 published in The New York Times, Simon & Schuster and Adams Media anthology series and others. Her short fiction has been published in literary reviews such as Rosebud, Confrontation, Anthology, Midstream, Lynx Eye, and North Atlantic Review as well as in John Wiley & Son’s Best Jewish Writing 2003.
