Patricia Travers: Poet & Author
Bachelor's Degree in Applied Communications in Professional Writing
& Certification in Journalism
Patricia Travers is a 1st year Gen X'er who lives in Alberta, Canada. Currently, Patricia is writing a book and pursuing some creative projects. When she isn't online, you can find her in her garden talking with her crows or hanging out with her dog, Mooshka.
The Travers Publishing House was founded in 2006 by Patricia Travers. In dire necessity to complete her practicum, Patricia created the Travers Publishing House and published her first two books, Amara and Ursula's Umbrellas.
In addition, she created a book Night Time Whispers, which was a collaboration with her daughter's kindergarten class. Patricia had each student draw a picture to match the poems that would be included in the book. Then she carefully chose three pictures from every student to appear in the book. Together with her community, they did a fundraiser and purchased a copy of the book for each student. Patricia's vision and message were to give it your best and overcome your limitations. Patricia herself struggled horribly in school as a child, but overcame the limitations. After graduating, the Travers Publishing House became a creative platform for her work.
Unfortunately, Patricia is not using the printers and bookstore she has used for years due to tariffs and program changes. At this time, The Travers House is exploring full Canadian options. As the times change, so do we.
Thoughts & Values
We are human ❤
"Authentic vulnerability is always required when you wish to connect with others. It's so risky and yet so necessary. It's what makes us human."

Church Street ...
Where Hope Grows
While meandering Church Street in Edmonton's inner city, Patricia interviewed over 70 people and turned their stories into poetry and prose. Accompanied by a photographer, this book is filled with beautiful images that capture some of Edmonton's historical buildings and people.
