The Queen of Rubenesque Romances to Reign at Brentwood, TN Borders Bookstore Saturday, May 12, 2007
After nearly dying from an eating disorder in her teens, Pat Ballard fought her way to self- and body-esteem. Now, as the Queen of Rubenesque Romances, the Nashville, TN author encourages women of all sizes to love themselves.
Nashville, TN, May 06, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Pat Ballard will appear in full regalia as the “Queen of Rubenesque Romances” at the Brentwood Borders bookstore at 2 p.m. Saturday, May 12 in conjunction with the publication of her latest book, the romantic suspense novel The Best Man.
Ballard’s books and short stories feature “plus sized” heroines and are written to inspire self-acceptance and self-care in all women, as well as to entertain. Ballard herself almost died from an eating disorder in her teens, and continued dieting/starving herself for years until resolving to eat normally and learning to love the body that resulted.
In addition to signing copies of The Best Man, just published by Pearlsong Press, Ballard will chat with the public and pass out ribbons imprinted with her “10 Steps to Loving Your Body (No Matter What Size You Are)." She is expanding the steps into a nonfiction book tentatively scheduled for publication by Pearlsong Press in 2008.
Ballard is also the author of Dangerous Curves Ahead: Short Stories, Wanted: One Groom, Nobody’s Perfect, His Brother’s Child, A Worthy Heir, and Abigail’s Revenge. She maintains a website at www.patballard.com.
Excerpts from her books, as well as links to archives of her monthly newsletter, “The Queen’s Proclamation,” are posted at her page on the Pearlsong Press website (www.pearlsong.com/pat_ballard.htm).
