Patricia Eagle

Patricia Eagle composed her first dog-love story at age ten and published her first book, Being Mean: A Memoir of Sexual Abuse and Survival, in her sixties. As a writer, speaker, and memorial and wedding celebrant, Eagle weaves meaning into stories that acknowledge and honor our lives’ paths. The death of her dog-loving spouse to cancer just prior to publication of Dog Love Stories has left Eagle to blaze a new trail—life after profound loss—with their dog, Mercy. She and Mercy live among the wonders of the San Luis Valley in South-Central Colorado.
