Hi, I’m Patricia L. Atchison. The L. distinguishes me from another Patricia Atchison who is an artist in the Vancouver area. I am the writer from the central Alberta, Water Valley area (in Canada). I’ve created this blog as part of my website, www.patriciaatchison.ca.
I’ve been writing what seems most of my life. I’ve kept journals since I was in high school and enjoy blogging about journal writing (see www.journalsandpapersblog.com). I’ve written and published 2 children’s books, Little Blue Penguin for ages 2 to 5 and McKenzie’s Frosty Surprise for ages 4 to 8. I was so pleased when my first book, Little Blue Penguin was nominated as a finalist for The word Guild 2008 Canadian Christian Writing Awards.
I enjoy and contrive most of my stories from nature. Seems I can’t look at an animal or human without thinking up a story about them and their situations. I believe there will forever always be a story in my mind. The trick is to get it down on paper!
