Fun With Dee Blog Header

Aloha minions LOL! Kidding.  I want to welcome P.A. Brown to the loony bin, i.e. Fun With Dee lol. Thank you so much for being here with us today.

How about we get to know a little about PA: Born in one of the coldest cities in Canada Pat escaped at 22, fleeing to Los Angeles. Her adventures there led to L.A. Heat and all its progeny.

She wrote her first book at 17. She read her first positive gay book then, The Lord Won’t Mind, by Gordon Merrick, and had her eyes opened. After holding a host of jobs, at 40 she went back to school and became a Network engineer, which eventually landed her on the shores of Bermuda where she spent 2 years learning how to drink rum swizzles and battle hurricanes. Back in Canada, she buckled down and started producing books seriously resulting in a multitude of books coming out in the next year.
