Hi! My name is Patricia Shirra and I'm a writer for teens and young adults. I enjoy writing fiction novels and short stories. I am also a mom of two who are much of my inspiration for writing. I have been a Freelance Educational Writer since 2005. I authored ten lessons for a Pre-K/K Math Teacher's Resource Guide for use with Learning Resources® Math manipulatives (Schawk Publishing Solutions, Evanston, IL.) I welcome you to become a follower of my blog and please leave a comment. Thank you, Patricia

The Unfocused Mind

I'm working on edits to two manuscripts to meet a September 30, 2011 submission deadline for both. Why is it that when the pressure of a deadline is upon you and it's imperative for you to focus, you simply can't?

Oh well, wish me luck.

  3. Found out about your blog over at Catherine Winn's The Writing Room.

    You'll make the deadline just by focusing your best one day at a time.
