About The Author

Pat Bertram is a native of Colorado and a lifelong resident. When the traditional publishers stopped publishing her favorite type of book — character and story driven novels that can’t easily be slotted into a genre — she decided to write her own. More Deaths Than One and A Spark of Heavenly Fire, available from Amazon and Second Wind Publishing, are Bertram’s first novels.

Bertram's publisher says: "I was told by some other small publishers with whom I had done research that I was going to get mountains of unacceptable crap for every worthy thing I received. So when I got Pat's manuscript for A Spark of Heavenly Fire, which was like the first submission to Second Wind, I thought, 'OMG, is this possible?!' I thought she was a ringer that one of the other writers had sent our way just to see if I was really reading the submissions. I knew in the first 20 pages that she was the real thing."

		Fran, selling poems is hard, whether individually or through a self-published book. One thing you might check out is duotrope.com. You might be able to find magazines and ezines to sell your poems through them.

		Hello Ms Bertram, I have written a number of poems,which I have been told were fairly good.However I have received several rejection letters.Would you advise self publishing.Would publishing my own work help me to find a legitimate agent?Thank You!
