I grew up on a farm in central Illinois and have also lived in Oklahoma (windy), Indiana (like Illinois), the south of France (such fun), and Florida (wet). I used to be an accounts payable manager and worked for a wonderful grocery chain in Indiana, another in Florida, and finally, an office supply corporation based in Florida.
Now retired, I live in Colorado with my husband and critters Sassy Dog and Katie Cat. I periodically fly off to visit grown-up kids in different parts of the country. 2010 marked the 50th anniversary of my high school graduation. Yes, we had a grand reunion. I thought it would be more scary than facing a pool of alligators, but we had a great time and stirred up some wonderful memories.
When I'm not writing, I read. And when I'm not reading, I do a lot of writing- and reading-related activities like blogging (https://patriciastolteybooks.com). I love television and movies, too, especially "reality" shows like Survivor and Big Brother, as well as mysteries and cop shows, especially those British series on PBS. I'm a member of Mystery Writers of America, Rocky Mountain Mystery Writers of America, Sisters in Crime, Sisters in Crime-Colorado, Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers, and Pikes Peak Writers. My two frontier fiction books, Wishing Caswell Dead and In Defense of Delia, were published under the author name of Pat Stoltey.
