Match.Con (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781439245095)

As a veteran writer in the business arena, Patricia Wood, has seen her work in print and in commercials for three decades. Not contented with one career, she has been a serial entrepreneur during her rich life. This Renaissance woman now turns her keen observations and wit to the world around her, drawing on the amazing people and things that may escape our notice without her writings. Her life has been full of uncommon experiences and acquaintances because her arms are open and her mind eager for the exceptional moment. Pat's website, patsoup.com, is filled regularly with thoughts, poems and essays sure to become the fodder for future novels. With a penchant for exposing the heart and humor in nearly every situation, Pat is an irrepressible optimist and high-energy motivator for friends, family, and readers. She is a free spirit, "a child of the '60s," who surrounds herself with art, good wine, kids of all ages, big dogs and those who share her gentle nature. By her own admission Pat is "someone with more to say, see, and do than there will be days for it all." Readers will be the beneficiaries of her sharing her experiences as she has so openly in this first novel.
