Patricia Woods (Author)

Hello, hello! Let me tell you three quick facts to introduce myself. I’m Patricia, I’m an aspiring writer, and I’m really glad you’re reading my blog.

Who are you?

Good question! My full name is Patricia Marie Woods. I’m a small town Canadian living in a quiet coastal town by New Brunswick. In the past, I was employed as a librarian and a substitute teacher. Now, I’ve decided to pursue writing full-time.

What’s your background?

I have a teaching degree that is no longer in use, and I also completed a two-year library science program. I’m very familiar with books, authors, and writing in general. Ask me a trivia question about literature, I’ll probably ace it!

I’m intrigued. Tell me more about yourself.

A fun fact about me is that I was actually homeschooled all the way until high school. Whenever I meet anyone new, it always seems to amaze them to discover this part about my childhood. Growing up, I guess I had a pretty unique experience from other kids, but I turned out just fine as a fully functional adult…I think!

Why did you start this blog?

I love to write, and working on this blog is the best writing exercise out there. It’s the perfect platform where I can polish my writing skills, test my creativity, and engage with other writers online.

What do you write about?

Honestly, I write about any topic that comes across my mind. I’m more inclined to write academic pieces just because it’s my forte, but like most writers I don’t want to box myself into any specific niche. No matter what I write about, I promise to do my diligent research and convey the information in a clear, concise manner.

Do you accept writing gigs?

Yes! As a full-time writer, I make my entire living based on there writing gigs here and there. If you want me to write for your blog, I’m definitely game. Contact me and we can talk more about the specifics. And in case you’re wondering about the quality of my work, this whole blog is the perfect portfolio showcase of my writing skills.
