Tiny but Mighty

This tiny little book from Patti at first disappointed me, judging as I did based only by its diminutive size. Silly me! Her brilliant storytelling leaps off the pages. As one writer to another, I almost threw up my hands (and in truth the book across the room!) telling myself that I will NEVER come close to being as good a storyteller than Patti's wonderful world of words in her storytelling charisma. OK, I didn't really throw the book across the room! I could never do that with any book, especially Patti's! This edition was stated as "like new" condition, however it is practically brand new in condition. But don't let it's small size or it's lack of heft discourage you from making this purchase! She doesn't need to write a tome to tell her stories. Look at it this way: you can devour it in one sitting. You will be awfully glad you did. And I truly hope that it will inspire you to pick up your pen and start writing your own story! There is no better compliment to another writer. You will not be disappointed. Heads up, I had to wait months for this book to be in stock, so I suggest you grab your copy while it is still available! Just be forewarned, you will not be able to resist purchasing more of her books! I highly recommend M Train. You're welcome!!
