ABOUT


︎︎
Patty O'Hearn is a pseudonym chosen for gender ambiguity and as a socially conscious statement. It also helps the author to create characters and situations beyond their own reality, teetering on the edge of what many would consider “normal.” Many of the themes and plots in O’Hearn’s books start from elements of vivid dreams before awakening. Others develop from current news or political situations that can be spun into more elaborate and unconventional tales.

O’Hearn currently lives in the Los Angeles area with their partner and two Terriers. Born in New Jersey in the mid-fifties, they moved all over the U.S. after graduating from college with a vast experience in various professional sectors, until a large brain mass and subsequent surgery forced them to be permanently disabled in 2014.  O’Hearn enjoys their time outside of writing, preparing meals and baking artisanal bread and desserts.
