Hello, and welcome! Tina Konstant here—author, storyteller, animal nut, wanna-be fiddle player, and working out how to be human on this weird, wild planet.
This is my home on the web, where I gather all my books, storytelling shenanigans, and my work with Peaceful Profits.
I’ve never done just one thing. And now that I’ve been on the planet a while, I’ve decided that’s perfectly okay. I follow ideas. I chase stories. I build what feels good, and a lot of it lands here.
On this site, you’ll find: All my books, including the Port Harker series, Story Frequency (previously Waffle-Free Storytelling), a short story collection, speed-reading guides, and a gentle invitation to join my email list for updates, thoughts, and behind-the-scenes bits.
If you are looking for ONE thing, and if that one thing is writing your personal or family story, you’ll want to start here.
So—have a wander, pick up a book or two, and above all:
Have a beautiful, story-shaped day.
— Tina
P.S. All books and stories are and always will be AI-free!


“The end of a story is like the end of a good meal. We’re sated but it doesn’t mean that we’ll never be hungry again.”

Where the podcast is 100% waffle-free, there's life between the stories in the books. Recipes, a haiku or two, random facts and storytelling games that’ll help you keep friends, family, and kids entertained, no matter how wild the weather or random the audience. Enjoy!
This collection of tales were originally split between four books. All in one book now, the stories take you from birth to death, through good and evil, and include a healthy mix of odd, weird, unnatural, and random human behaviours, expectations, and natures. It’s life, after all.

My favourite day: morning walk with my dog, breakfast in the garden (got a veggie growing adventure going on there), reading a good book, writing a good book, helping the team at Peaceful Profits do EPIC work, a dip in the ocean, a mellow evening with special people...
I usually manage about 30% of that, then the world takes over :-) That's life, glorious life!
Born in Zimbabwe, raised in South Africa, I live in Scotland. Besides helping people write and publish their books, I'm the host and chief noise-maker on the Story Frequency Podcast (previously Waffle-Free Storytelling) and author of the associated books.
Other writing shenanigans include short story collections, a non-fiction series on the application of storytelling, and The Port Harker series.
For all the books, go to Amazon and search my name: Tina Konstant.
Welcome to my world.
