Home This is ME at the Printers Row Book Fair:) Welcome to my website! Here you will find information about ME, some of my works, my author visits and writing workshops, and my company called Pattycake Productions. If you have questions about any of these things, please email me by clicking on CONTACT ME (or you can email me directly at patricia@ Patricia:) PS Check out some of my BIG NEWS below and watch for my upcoming titles, etc., on my WORKS page. Some BIG NEWS I had the opportunity to meet one of my favorite children's authors at the Winnetka Bookstall in Winnetka, IL. It was an honor and pleasure to speak with her and learn more about her creative process. I hope to attend her Meteor Festival in July of 09 and keep in touch. I also do author events, writing workshops, and booksignings. Check out my VISITS and WORKSHOPS pages for details. HIGH FIVES FOR HIGH FIVE! My recent poem entitled HIGH FIVE in HIGH FIVE Magazine (HIGHLIGHTS' PRE-K Magazine)is being reprinted in a showcase issue, and was made into a full-size poster to promote the magazine. It's all very exciting. HIGH FIVES all around! CAMP WRITE ON--WAS RIGHT ON! For four consecutive Tuesday evenings, from June 24-July 15, young writers (Grades 3 - 5) attended the first-ever CAMP WRITE ON! hosted by ME at The Book Stall in Winnetka, IL. The twelve enthusiastic writers and I explored topics including how to get ideas for writing, what to do with the ideas once you've got them, how to start writing and keep writing and "to write stories that will change our lives, our readers' lives...and change the world." Check out what The Bookstall had to say about CAMP WRITE ON! on my VISITS page. CELEBRATE WRITING! I had the honor and privilege of working with Arlington Heights School District #25's CELEBRATE WRITING program as its author-in-residence this school year. I worked with 140+ students to convince them that like Mark Twain said, "TRUTH IS STRANGER THAN FICTION." They found that out...and a whole bunch more. Read more about it SOON on my VISITS page.
