Patrice Tartt is a bestselling author, speaker, entrepreneur, and the Dream Big Writing Coach® in addition to serving as Editor-in-Chief of MillBuzz.com. In order to deal with her dad’s demise and the problems that followed, Patrice began writing. On the day of his funeral, she declared she was going to write a book while standing outside his house, hurt, angry, and perplexed.
Before Patrice’s father passed away, she had never written anything. In high school, she would write in her English class, but she never gave other writing—especially creative writing—any thought. She tells about Mr. Farley from Advanced Placement English in high school, who would use his red ink pen to bleed all over her papers every week. Since then, Patrice has advanced significantly. Nevertheless, she let the anguish of losing her father drive her to achieve her goals of becoming a best-selling author and contributing writer for major US magazines, including Everything Girls Love, Black Enterprise, HuffPost, MadameNoire, Sheen Magazine, and Curly Nikki. In addition, Patrice has submitted pitches to be published in magazines like Publishers Weekly, ESSENCE, Inc., Black Enterprise, and more!
Patrice originally turned to writing as a form of therapy in order to deal with her father’s passing. This greatly aided her in creating her first book, Wounds of Deception. Following her writing and self-publication, Patrice made the decision to broaden her writing abilities and begin contributing to national media outlets on a worldwide scale.
Based in the Washington, D.C. metro area, Patrice has been featured and mentioned in publications such as Publishers Weekly, She Knows, Inc., Everything Girls Love, ESSENCE, BET, Houston Defender, and The Network Journal. In addition, she has written for Curly Nikki, MadameNoire, ESSENCE, Black Enterprise, Sheen, HuffPost, and EverythingGirlsLove. She likes to travel, go shopping, and spend time with her son when she has free time. In addition, Patrice belongs to Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.
