Patricia, known as Tricia by her friends, was born and raised an “army brat” and moved frequently. She counted on the library to be her constant friend wherever she was in the world. She’s an avid letter writer. One of her most prized responses is a personal letter from Walter Farley, author of The Black Stallion. 

After a brief career as a children’s librarian, Tricia home educated her four children. She resides in Longwood, Florida with her husband and 93 year old mother. She hosts a book club and is writing her first book, which is naturally in epistolary form.
