Patricia Johns No, I wasn't raised Amish, although I do have a Mennonite family background, which gave us all a great respect for Old Order Mennonites. I started writing Amish because I love the idea of writing a story within those narrow societal restrictions--a bit like historical romance that way! Small things mean so much more when you're forbidden. So I gave it a try, and ended up loving it as much as I thought I would!
Patricia Johns I sit down.

LOL! I'm serious! I have office hours, and they are precious, since that is the time I'm alone and don't have other people needing me. So if I'm at my desk, I'm working.
Patricia Johns Just keep writing and keep submitting! I'm convinced that persistence is the most important quality in a successful writer.
Patricia Johns I'm ALWAYS working on a new book! At the moment, I'm writing an Amish romance with a marriage of convenience.
