About me
I’m Patti P.—a best-selling novelist, award-winning editor, and founder of InkSpire Press, an independent publishing house. Across three decades I’ve written and edited newspapers, magazines, and full-length books in fiction and nonfiction, earning top awards from national associations. I bring what few editors offer together: a working novelist’s ear for voice and a publisher’s eye for what makes a manuscript ready for readers. I’m especially at home with faith-based writing, and I treat your voice as the thing to protect, never the thing to erase.... Read more

Founder & Publisher InkSpire Press

Apr 2025 - Present • 1 yr 3 mos

I'm a best-selling novelist, an award-winning editor, and the founder of InkSpire Press, with three decades of professional writing and editing behind me. I began in journalism—writing, editing, and leading newsrooms as a managing editor for community and faith-based publications, including the Carolina Christian Times and The Light of Lynchburg. My editorial work has been honored with multiple first-place awards for editorial writing, layout, and overall excellence. Along the way I've shaped copy for national clients such as the American Red Cross, Top Agent Magazine, and Liberty University, among other national nonprofit and public figures. Today I edit and publish full-length books across fiction, nonfiction, and children's titles, including Amazon best-sellers. Whatever you've written, I bring a novelist's ear for voice and a publisher's eye for what makes a manuscript ready for readers.
