Patricia Middleton is a uniquely gifted inspirational speaker, workshop leader, and Christian educator. For the past 45 years she has been writing about life, love, and the Lord. In addition to writing and reading, few of her favorite things are action, legal, and crime dramas, Korean TV, karaoke, cooking, and ASL.
After working for more than two decades for Verizon/Bell Atlantic, Patricia began a new career in 2006 as a producer at WTMR 800 AM (Beasley Media Group LLC). A few years later she became the founder of Poetricia Publishing (2010). Since then she has published over one dozen books of her own books, and assisted 30 other indie authors in the publication of their books. In 2025 Patricia picked up the mantle to continue the work of Empowering Women 2 Stand, an organization founded by her late mother to support women and children in crisis.
Patricia is certified with the New Jersey Coalition to End Domestic Violence (www.njcedv.org) and uses her platforms to give voice to the horrors of domestic violence and the hope found in the aftermath. She also partners with senior living facilities, local libraries, and community & faith-based organizations to facilitate virtual and in-person poetry and writing workshops. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she launched WPAT LIVE, a faith-based podcast, and The Village Authors, a support group for seasoned, new, and aspiring authors.
Currently working on several literary projects of her own, as well as the unpublished works of her dear late sister, Patricia gives all glory to God. As she says, "Perfect the gift. Worship the Giver."
