PAT'S JOURNEY
From self-published author to helping others publish.
Pat's experience spans writing, publishing and mentoring — giving him an understanding of what authors face throughout the publishing process.
Pat is a writer with eleven published books across different genres, with books published by four publishing houses.

Pat has also worked as a writing coach for many years. Through that experience, he has seen the writing and publishing journey from different directions and has helped more than 70 authors
That combination of author, publisher and mentor experience now sits at the heart of Writer's Angel — helping writers understand their options and move through the publishing process with guidance and support.

A PERSONAL JOURNEY
“If I can write books, certainly you can too.”
Pat is dyslexic. His dyslexia caused him to leave school at an early age, at a time when he describes himself as being virtually illiterate. It is a perspective that helps Pat understand writers who may doubt whether their manuscript — or even their ability as a writer — is good enough.
Yet his journey eventually took him into writing, publishing books of his own, establishing a publishing house and helping other writers become published.
It is a perspective that helps Pat understand writers who may doubt whether their manuscript — or even their ability as a writer — is good enough to move forward.
