Book Discussion

I occasionally get introspective.

I keep a list of my personal books I have written as a guide to remind me of my own accomplishments. There are days where I don’t believe that I am worthy. That list helps me find my own worth on days where it feels like it doesn’t exist.

Now I have been told that my personal book list is daunting. I have been doing this publishing thing since 2010…and I still have a nasty case of imposter syndrome.

Most people who read my blog know that I write as Patricia Harris and as Serena Mossgraves.

Serena Mossgraves currently only has 11 books published. Not terribly daunting, but I can see it would be slightly intimidating .

Patricia Harris however has a bibliography of epic proportions. I counted 68 books published under that name. yeah it’s daunting.  I have been doing better than I thought.

Sometimes I just need to remind myself that I have been doing things of worth.

multi media multi genre okay explain

FAQ

I end up claiming to be a multi media artist and a multi genre writer and I think it confuses people.

so I will try to explain…

Art covers pencil drawings, watercolor painting, clay sculpture, acrylic paintings, digital paintings, cover design, jewelry design, resin art, crochet, plastic canvas, oil pastels and other things that I have yet to explore. I have been known to do candle making, macrame, sewing projects…and each of the projects were for me a form of art.

I know how to make books by hand. I can do Calligraphy. I can bake my own bread. Art is subjective. I am not one to limit myself to one medium.

I list myself as a multi genre writer as I have published nonfiction , poetry, and children’s books as Patricia Harris and horror, Gothic Poetry, and dark fantasy as Serena Mossgraves. I don’t think that is too confusing.

A gift for the fans

So I have received a few comments that my book catalog is daunting…my friend Jenny asked me to do omnibus editions for my poetry volumes and it seemed like a good idea. So in April – for National Poetry Month I will be releasing omnibus editions of my poetry volumes.
