Coming soon: My young adult historical fiction book, The Sound Fisher, about Ayokah helping her father Sequoyah develop a system of writing for the Cherokee.
Patricia “Pat” Leone, aka Leona Patrick
After graduating with a Bachelor of Arts from Denver University, I took graduate night classes in information technology while teaching arts and crafts in Richmond, Virginia.
Mid-career, I accepted a software developer position in Atlanta. Although it was radical career change, it proved a fascinating and challenging outlet for my creativity.
Upon my retirement in the tiny shipping village of Thunderbolt, Georgia, my sunrise walks along the intracoastal waterway and my boyfriend’s request for a portrait rekindled my interest in painting.
Writing, painting, sunrise walks, practicing yoga and pilates, and Native American drumming are among my many interests.
