Patrice's writing makes me happy. She's got three novels out, and all three are lighthearted, clever romances that make you laugh out loud.
But her faith in me and my own writing isn't anything to laugh about. Patrice is the kind of friend who will give me a completely honest appraisal of a chapter I've written, but deliver it with so much kindness that it doesn't hurt, even when it isn't what I was hoping to hear. Her suggestions are spot-on, and her belief in me buoys me up when I'm feeling down.
