Almost an Outlaw (7 page)

Patricia Preston’s love for storytelling started when she wrote her first short story in the sixth grade. Since then, she has had several stories published and has won the William Faulkner Award for Short Fiction and Harlequin’s World’s Best Romances novella contest. When she is not working on a story or at her job in the medical field, she is catching up on her reading, improving her photography skills, looking for clearance sales or watching movies. Don’t ask her how many times she has seen
The Lord of the Rings.
