Award-winning screenwriter and novelist PATRICIA BURROUGHS (Pooks) is a fifth-generation Texan who lives in Dallas with her husband, near her three sons and their families.
Her earliest memories are of long afternoons spent soaking up the drama and laughter of the silver screen, and of long nights absorbing the magic of the written word—by flashlight. As a teenager, she sang, danced and acted in community theater productions. These influences, she believes, are the foundation of her lifelong ambition to write, to spin the dreams that ignite imaginations—to repay the debt to those who reached through the klieg lights, flashlights and footlights to touch a young girl’s heart.
