Patty Blount grew up quiet and a bit invisible in Queens, NY, but found her voice in books. Today, she writes smart and strong characters willing to fight for what’s right. She’s the award-winning author of edgy, realistic, gut-wrenching contemporary and young adult romance. Still a bit introverted, she gets lost often, eats way too much chocolate, and tends to develop mad, passionate crushes on fictional characters. Let’s be real; Patty’s not nearly as cool as her characters, but she is a solid supporter of women’s rights and loves delivering school presentations.

Patty is best known for her internet issues novels, SEND, a 2012 Junior Library Guild Fall Pick and TMI, a 2014 Watty winner, and her #MeToo novels, including SOME BOYS, a 2015 C ...more

Happy Holidays from the Blounts

Traditions abound at this time of year and one of those traditions is holiday baking.

Every year, I bake mountains of cookies and every year, I get requests for this one, in particular:

The Italian Rainbow Cookie

This year, I won’t get to spend the holiday with my oldest son. He lives out of state now and due to Covid, will not be traveling.

He says it’s just not Christmas without these
