Patricia Collier's
Bio:
I was born and raised
in Georgia. My parents instilled in me a
love of reading. I was delighted to receive
money on birthdays so that I could purchase
the latest book in the Cherry Ames mystery
series. One of my favorite childhood
memories was bicycling with my mother to the
bookmobile.
I developed an
interest in history that led me to gather
the personal accounts of medical corps
personnel in World War II. HEALERS IN WORLD
WAR II was published by McFarland & Company,
Inc., Publishers, edited by Patricia W.
Sewell (Collier) in 2001. Excerpts from my
book were used in the series THE COLOR OF
WAR on the History Channel in the episode
"The Price of War."
Georgia history as it
related to the American Revolution inspired
me to write my present book THE HORNET’S
NEST Book 1: "The Reluctant Wife." Although
this book is fiction, I hope readers will
gain insight into what these early Americans
sacrificed for freedom. As I researched
those years of turmoil, I came to understand
that those veterans experienced the same
trauma as our veterans are experiencing
today. They returned with nightmarish
memories, especially the American
prisoners-of-war. Jacob, Taberah, and their
friends discover that recovery from the past
requires forgiveness.
May this remind us
that there are blessings even in tough
times. God has a perfect plan for each of
us.
