Today we have Pat Simmons's survey comments on 17seeds. Pat is nosy by nature. She’s known for making friends where ever she goes. She praises God for the inspiration to write, and the “village people” for helping her get the job done. Her novels include Guilty of Love (September 2007) and Talk To Me (November 2008).
