The Authors

Pat Taylor Ellison

Pat Taylor Ellison, Ph.D., has been an English teacher for almost 50 years. She is the author of a Prentice-Hall writing textbook and four children’s adventure novels. She moved from Minneapolis after retiring in 2017 and now lives in Fargo with her husband a few blocks from her daughter, son-in-law, and their sons. She wants anyone exploring this website to know that, of all the things she has learned and taught over the years, the most useful are clear thinking, clear speaking, and clear writing. If you develop those skills, you can accomplish almost anything.
