ⓘ About Chris Patchell
Through the years, she has written numerous popular and USA Today bestselling series and novels. Her writing has won several awards, including an IndieReader Discovery Award, a 2022 Next Generation Indie Book Award, and a Pacific Northwest Literary Award. Chris can be found (when she is not busy writing): watching football, struggling to keep up her workout regime, reading books, hanging out with her family, and all while she tries to shush her incessantly yapping Yorkies. Chris finds it easy to get stuck on something. She’ll either skip over the scene and just write what she does know, or will just barrel onward and write the scene, no matter how crappy and half-baked it might be. Even if she winds up trashing the scene anyway, it still gets her moving in the right direction.
