bio & experience
Patricia Martin (she/they) is a freelance and creative writer and editor whose work has been published in Midnight & Indigo, Tech Radar, Shine Text, Black Girl Nerds, and the Chicago Tribune, among others. She’s an Association of Writers & Writing Programs 2020 Writer to Writer mentee, 2022 The Word Editor-Writer mentee, and 2022 Lambda Literary Emerging LGBTQ Voices fellow.
She is the creator of the culture and lifestyle blog, The Glam Femme, which has been featured on several online platforms for its focus on accessible fashion, social justice, mental health, and diversity. With The Glam Femme, Patricia has also produced a series called “Femme Voices,” which spotlights QTPOC artists and entrepreneurs and their contributions to society.
Patricia has always had a passion for helping people, which led her to a career in counseling and social services. With a strong desire to make a greater difference than she felt she could with her B.A. in Psychology, Patricia pursued her J.D. and earned licenses to practice law in NJ and PA. As she continues to expand her resume, she currently works as a legal content editor. Throughout her professional career of over 15 years, she has honed her skills in many forms of professional writing and editing.
In addition to writing in the social services and legal fields, Patricia has been writing fiction ever since she can remember and has written for her own website and others for the past seven years. Patricia is committed to providing services to other creatives who don’t have the time, the desire, or the patience to create content that will allow them to reach their desired audiences and get their messages across.
To this end, Patricia not only contributes freelance articles to publications, but she also writes bio/about pages and blog articles and provides website content via The Glam Femme Writing Services. She’s also performed manuscript editing services at Write my Wrongs Co.
Besides achieving her educational goals, Patricia considers her biggest accomplishment to be allowing herself to reach a place in life where she felt ready to pursue her dreams. Influenced by her mother and grandmother, entrepreneurs who immigrated from Jamaica, Patricia wishes to provide excellent services to her clients and inspire them to understand the sky is the limit when it comes to reaching their goals.
