Angel’s Journey
Author
Survivor
Healer
Before there were the Moon Landing Chronicles, there was Angel’s real story—a life so dark and traumatic that, at times, she survived by living in Moon Landing in her mind.
Forever Me – Here I Stand is Angel Harden’s memoir of trauma, addiction, homelessness, domestic violence, motherhood, cancer, recovery, whānau, and healing. Written with unflinching honesty, it follows the years when survival meant finding somewhere inside herself that pain could not reach.
Moon Landing grew from that inner refuge: a world where imagination offered safety when real life did not. The memoir tells the truth behind that escape—the wounds, the endurance, and the long journey towards standing again.
This is not an easy rescue story. It is a story of reclaiming a voice, rebuilding a life, and turning lived experience into hope for others.
The Moon Landing Chronicles
A DARK SUPERNATURAL SAGA
Set in the Heart of New Zealand
From the streets of Auckland to the hidden valleys and forgotten back roads of the King Country, the Moon Landing Chronicles follows Tarlia Jane as she uncovers a secret world of ancient vampires, forbidden love, found family, and immortality hidden beneath ordinary life.
Rich in New Zealand landscapes, emotional depth, and gothic atmosphere, the series explores what it truly means to survive, to belong, and to remain human when everything else is lost.

Why Everything Is Connected
Angel’s journey is the thread that ties everything together. She survived trauma, addiction, abuse, and domestic violence and rebuilt her life through healing, resilience, and hope.
The stories she writes were born during her darkest moments, when fantasy became a safe place to escape. The Moon Landing Chronicles grew from the world she imagined while dreaming of a different future.
Today, through Rongoā Angel, she supports others who are carrying trauma, grief, pain, and life’s heavy burdens. The same compassion that shaped her own healing now shapes her work as a practitioner.
Whether through her memoir, her fantasy novels, photo restoration, or rongoā, every part of this journey has the same purpose: preserving stories, creating hope, and helping people believe that healing is possible.
