Author Meretta Pater

I’m one of those people who wants to do EVERYTHING and so I’ve spent many years doing just that. I can tell you I’m certified for many trades and occupations, but what always squeezes my heart are children and the written word. I love to see little ones happy and in regards to writing, whether I’ve read it or written it, words just grab me and twist me inside out. The power of a silly sentence or one that is resounding can change our thinking, our outlook, our lives. It’s done so for me and I’m sure it has for you, too.

While it’s been awhile since I’ve written for publication, I’m just jumping back into that particular arena. Other than that, you’ll find me looking after little ones (I am a daycare owner and an ECE/ITE), steadfastly ignoring stock charts (once upon a time I was a professional trader of stocks, options, futures and forex), gardening and taking pictures of flowers and/or vegetables, or thinking about running (I think about it better than I do it). I am also in the midst of taking my Yoga Teacher Training. My ex-military husband and I make our home in beautiful Fernie, BC.
