About
I am a writer. My first poetry teacher started class with everyone saying their name followed by “I am a writer”. That statement identified me.
I write poetry, essays, fiction, non-fiction for Screaminmama’s magazine. I submit to contests, anthologies, and have a children’s book on Amazon. My blog is Patricia's Gold.
I am 70, quite golden! I enjoy writing inspirational pieces for seniors as well I invite you to follow me.
