Pat Adeff writes clean and wholesome women's fiction, and family sagas as well as sweet romances about second chances - with just a hint of spice!

She's also written several laugh-out-loud comedies which have been produced in theaters from California to New York.

She loves writing, reading, and beach sunsets. If you sign up for her newsletters, you'll receive one when her latest book goes live.

Pat is an incurable romantic and definitely believes in second chances and happily-ever-afters.

In fact, several years ago she found her own second chance! She and her composer husband recently moved from NYC to Largo, FL and are enjoying the sunshine!

Striking up a conversation is easy; I introduce myself as a writer, and people immediately start telling me about their lives. Every person has at least one story, if not many, in their lives. It's always inspirational for me, and gives me the spark I need. Writer's Block never lasts long when I get interested in others.(less)

Although the story is about a woman and her two daughters (same as my scene) the rest is fiction. The story rapidly took on a life of it's own, and I read it as I was writing it. Alas, there's no Doug Saunders in my life, yet...(less)

Orson Scott Card
“Writer’s block is my unconscious mind telling me that something I’ve just written is either unbelievable or unimportant to me, and I solve it by going back and reinventing some part of what I’ve already written so that when I write it again, it is believable and interesting to me. Then I can go on. Writer’s block is never solved by forcing oneself to “write through it,” because you haven’t solved the problem that caused your unconscious mind to rebel against the story, so it still won’t work – for you or for the reader.”
Orson Scott Card
