Laurel Roth Patton has been published in anthologies including Stigma Fighters Anthology Vol. 2 and First-Class Times, and in the journal Teacher Librarian: "Karaoke in the Library," an idea inspired by an unplanned karaoke performance while manic. An education junkie, she holds an MFA, MLIS, and a BA in Jungian Interpretations of World Creation Myths. Laurel is furiously polishing her memoir of mania, Too Marvelous For Words, which chronicles the wonder, horror, and absurdity of mania.
