Hi, I’m Tasha Bovain—a writer, truth-teller, and recovering good girl. I unpack the burdens, expectations, and contradictions of modern-day womanhood through personal essays and cultural commentary.

About Tasha

I’m Tasha Bovain, an essayist and reformed New Yorker now living in Matthews, NC. With over a decade of professional writing experience, I’ve crafted everything from attorney bios and website copy to newspaper articles and personal essays.
