Patty began her career writing traditional high fantasy novels in 1993, and shifted gears in 2006 to write urban fantasy. Moon Called was the first of her signature series about Mercy; the non-stop adventure left readers wanting more and word of this exciting new urban fantasy series about a shape-shifting mechanic spread quickly.

She has short stories in several anthologies, as well as a series of comic books and graphic novels based on her Mercy Thompson and Alpha and Omega series. Patty began her career writing traditional high fantasy novels in 1993, and shifted gears in 2006 to write urban fantasy. Moon Called was the first of her signature series about Mercy; the non-stop adventure left readers wanting more and word of this exciting new urban fantasy series about a shape-shifting mechanic spread quickly. The series has continued to grow in popularity with the release of each book. Patty also writes the Alpha and Omega series, which are set in the same world as the Mercy Thompson novels; what began as a novella expanded into a full new series, all of which debuted on the NY Times bestsellers list as well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePatty was born in Butte, Montana, back in 1965.

Knights and castles, fair maidens, and monsters of every ilk became their nighttime companions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSoon, Patty learned to read, and whole worlds were hers to explore. She rode on the Black Stallion, and flew the skies of Pern on a dragon. Sometime during that period she stumbled onto a treasure trove. Her older sister had begun collecting comic books; pristine originals were place in cellophane sleeves and organized in cardboard boxes. When her sister was away, they were removed by grubby fingers smeared with peanut butter and jelly for a clandestine read, returning with a faint smudges and wrinkled pages from reading under the covers.

I'd learned how to write conversations and scenes so I thought I'd tackle something with a bit more complex plot. A murder mystery, I thought, wouldn't be that hard. I'd enjoyed Aralorn's spying job and decided to try that again. Murder and politics go hand in glove. So I plotted out a murder mystery because I'd learned in school that you were supposed to start with an outline. Mind you, I usually wrote my outlines after I had the paper done, but I knew that was how you were supposed to do it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Masques, I'd found the perfect spy in Aralorn who could take the shape of a few useful animals. In Steal the Dragon, I decided I'd try to find a heroine who could also become a good spy. A servant, I decided. I do remember that I was quite firm about that in the outline. Five pages into the story I had a Really Good Idea. If a servant was invisible in a noble household, how much more invisible would a slave be? No, wait, an Ex-slave who is blackmailed into going back into ... Ouch. The first thing I realized, after twenty pages or so of whining, was that there really was no such thing as an ex-slave. It's something that sticks to you, like a rape or an abusive marriage. I threw out my outline and tackled the real story.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy writing skills were really not up to the job. But the story burned in my fingers, if I could just get it out. Writing Steal the Dragon was like rolling boulders up a hill. I threw away three pages for every page I wrote. I finally sent it off to Ace, where Laura Anne Gilman had already bought Masques. She very gently refused it but agreed to discuss her reasons and look at it again if I rewrote it. The problem, it seemed, was not with Rialla, but with her romance lead, Tris. He was always coming to the rescue. So I took a good look at him and realized something. This was Rialla's book, but Tris, like Aralorn (from Masques), was infinitely better suited for the job, shapeshifters being the perfect spies. So he would sit around until Rialla got in a tight spot and then rescue her, just like Superman.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI'd have to rewrite the whole thing. What helped the most in this project was that between the time I'd sent Ace the first, terrible, draft of Steal the Dragon and when Laura Anne rejected it, I'd written most of When Demons Walk and sometime during the process I'd finally learned to write.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo I made Tris something different a healer with a touch of the dryad -- and the rewrite came together better than I'd hoped. I dropped terrible scenes that still make me wince especially since I know my editor had to slog through them. . . giant spiders crawling down the buildings, Tris taking the shape of a park bench. . . really, really terrible scenes. And I was left with a book that in many ways is still my favorite.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI learned a lot from Steal the Dragon, not the least of which was that good editors make good books. Oh, and a bit of trivia if you'd like. Not having extensive experience with fighting, I draw upon my husband and his misspent youth for my fight scenes. I had particular trouble with the physical blocking of one scene in Steal the Dragon and finally made my husband write it for me. I polished it a bit and put it in.

When I sold my stories only after I'd finished them, getting anywhere was half the fun. But beginning with Dragon Blood I had to submit at least something about the plot of the books I was writing. It took me a while to discover that there is adventure in having an outline to follow as well. Just about the time I start to rely on it, an unexpected character pops in and announces that he (or she) is going to be an important part of the book. Or the plot takes an surprise, but logical turn and I'm out in the middle of the lake without a clue how I'm going to get to shore. Blood Bound did that to me more than most.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter the first few panicked moments, though, I realize that those unexpected turns make it a better story (as long as I clean up behind me), for two reasons. First, the story becomes unpredictable for the reader -- and second, the story takes on a realism it didn't have before. Those unexpected changes are almost always sparked by something I didn't know about the characters or the world when I sat down to write the outline six months to a year earlier.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLet me tell you just a little about Blood Bound. Er. Yes. Hmm. I hate this part. It's very difficult to take a 100,000 word story and condense it into 100 words without making it sound stupid. My publisher does it very well, but since I only have the front cover, I can't steal from their blurb.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo -- Here's Patty's version of a back cover blurb: What could frighten a vampire? Mercy is about to find out. While repaying a favor, Mercy finds herself face to face with a monster that should not exist. Her hunt for the monster will lead her deep into the realm of of the vampire -- where she will discover more than she wanted to about herself and the people she loves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"productDescriptionSource\"\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productDescriptionWrapper\" dir=\"auto\"\u003ePatricia Briggs steadfastly refuses to write a biography.

When I sold my stories only after I'd finished them, getting anywhere was half the fun. But beginning with Dragon Blood I had to submit at least something about the plot of the books I was writing. It took me a while to discover that there is adventure in having an outline to follow as well. Just about the time I start to rely on it, an unexpected character pops in and announces that he (or she) is going to be an important part of the book. Or the plot takes an surprise, but logical turn and I'm out in the middle of the lake without a clue how I'm going to get to shore. Blood Bound did that to me more than most.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter the first few panicked moments, though, I realize that those unexpected turns make it a better story (as long as I clean up behind me), for two reasons. First, the story becomes unpredictable for the reader -- and second, the story takes on a realism it didn't have before. Those unexpected changes are almost always sparked by something I didn't know about the characters or the world when I sat down to write the outline six months to a year earlier.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLet me tell you just a little about Blood Bound. Er. Yes. Hmm. I hate this part. It's very difficult to take a 100,000 word story and condense it into 100 words without making it sound stupid. My publisher does it very well, but since I only have the front cover, I can't steal from their blurb.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo -- Here's Patty's version of a back cover blurb: What could frighten a vampire? Mercy is about to find out. While repaying a favor, Mercy finds herself face to face with a monster that should not exist. Her hunt for the monster will lead her deep into the realm of of the vampire -- where she will discover more than she wanted to about herself and the people she loves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"productDescriptionSource\"\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"productDescriptionWrapper\" dir=\"auto\"\u003ePatricia Briggs steadfastly refuses to write a biography.

Patty began her career writing traditional high fantasy novels in 1993, and shifted gears in 2006 to write urban fantasy. Moon Called was the first of her signature series about Mercy; the non-stop adventure left readers wanting more and word of this exciting new urban fantasy series about a shape-shifting mechanic spread quickly. The series has continued to grow in popularity with the release of each book.

We were all to write an erotic short story, so I invented the Hob's world and a woman who was different from the ones I'd written before: a woman who started out as a good mediaeval housewife then was honed by survival into a woman of strength and character. It didn't turn out to be erotica, but I liked the story. Unfortunately, I couldn't get a good hold on Aren's character when I backed up to the softer woman the story began with. This was a problem I'd never encountered before, characters usually come easily to me. In frustration I shifted to first person, but not even that desperate effort seemed to help. I workshopped it at two writer's groups, and at last, Jerry Oltion hit the nail on the head. \"Things just happen to her. She never does anything,\" he said. And I learned a very simple truth, good characters have to do something - which was counter to the character I'd established for her. So I changed the first chapter and suddenly Aren was a real person to me.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3 class=\"productDescriptionSource\"\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"productDescriptionWrapper\" dir=\"auto\"\u003ePatricia Briggs steadfastly refuses to write a biography.

We were all to write an erotic short story, so I invented the Hob's world and a woman who was different from the ones I'd written before: a woman who started out as a good mediaeval housewife then was honed by survival into a woman of strength and character. It didn't turn out to be erotica, but I liked the story. Unfortunately, I couldn't get a good hold on Aren's character when I backed up to the softer woman the story began with. This was a problem I'd never encountered before, characters usually come easily to me. In frustration I shifted to first person, but not even that desperate effort seemed to help. I workshopped it at two writer's groups, and at last, Jerry Oltion hit the nail on the head. \"Things just happen to her. She never does anything,\" he said. And I learned a very simple truth, good characters have to do something - which was counter to the character I'd established for her. So I changed the first chapter and suddenly Aren was a real person to me.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3 class=\"productDescriptionSource\"\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"productDescriptionWrapper\" dir=\"auto\"\u003ePatricia Briggs steadfastly refuses to write a biography.

It made me like some of them more and others less. It also made me realize that one of the terrific things about writing a series is the ability to get to know more about the bit players. In a single book, or even a duology, there are only so many pages to develop characters and I have to restrict myself to only a few. A series is not so restrictive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"productDescriptionSource\"\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\" class=\"productDescriptionWrapper\"\u003ePatricia Briggs steadfastly refuses to write a biography.

Not the general bluing to protect it from rust, but the kind that leaves behind a peacock blue finish.

Laura Anne had taken a job heading Roc and Masques final numbers were terrible. Really bad. Steal the Dragon was doing pretty well, but not well enough to make up for Masques without an editor who liked my books. Down-hearted, I finished Wolf's Bane and shuffled around, trying to find a reason to write another book. My agent, Virginia Kidd, shopped When Demons Walk around. I have all the rejection letters, most of them quite happy with the book, but not my numbers. When I finished Wolf's Bane, my contract with Ace indicated that I had to send it to them too.
