Holly Patrone

I was born and raised on Long Island and come from a loud but happy family whose skill set includes (but is not limited to) simultaneously arm waving for emphasis with one hand while not losing antipasto off a piece of Italian bread in the other.

I earned my first writing prize, a feather quill pen, in the fourth grade for a short story titled "The Mannequin Mansion." Over the years I have won a number of awards in the United States and internationally. "Death Is A Relative Thing" is my debut novel.
