Biography

Teresa D. Patterson came onto the literary scene with her debut novel, Project Queen, which was published by a small independent publishing company. It wasn't long before she realized having complete control over the creation and distribution of her books suited her better, compelling her to publish her own future works.

Her first independent published novel was Ex-boyfriend. She went on to write several novels in multiple genres, which includes contemporary fiction, erotica, inspirational fiction, juvenile fiction, romance, and urban lit. She has written twenty-eight novels and co-authored one.

Smashwords Interview

Where did you grow up, and how did this influence your writing?
I grew up in a rural part of Arkansas. I've used my own experiences of being chased by geese in some of my story lines. I can describe a country dirt road because I've actually lived at the end of one.
When did you first start writing?
I began writing at the age of ten. As a fifth grader, I became the most popular writer in my class. The teacher would pass around a sheet of paper with a variety of titles written down. We'd have to select a title, write a story, and read it in front of the class.
