Laurie Martin

Lifelong inhabitant of Western Massachusetts, graduate of Holyoke Community College, soon to be graduate of UMASS Isenberg School of Management and licensed nurse, M.L. Patterson prefers to consider writing a ‘mental cathartic’ where the constraints of the world can be tuned out and allow the nuances of creativity to run free. A childhood love of reading was forged by both mother, grandmother and a perpetual stream of shared books. Hobbies include home DIY, camping, skiing and anything creative.
