About Me

Welcome to my blog! My name is Pattie, and I've been in this little corner of the web for almost 20 years, writing about books and writing. I am a ministry wife, mom of two adult daughters, a current college and former high school English teacher, writer, editor, proofreader, daughter, friend, and not-so-secret book hoarder.

My blog's name comes from Nicole Johnson's book Fresh-Brewed Life: A Stirring Invitation to Lift Up Your Soul. I first saw Nicole perform at Wives of Faith in 1999, and her book was instrumental in a spiritual awakening in my heart.

As I find myself back in teaching in 2023-24, it's been a struggle to balance teaching and writing and being a good long-distance mom and mom-in-law to my children who are grown and flown. I hope to continue writing more in the future!
