Wow! Life goes by in a flash.
Philosophers and mystics ponder the mystery of these flashes. Pamela Wight writes about life flashes in her short stories that include family and friends, love and life's challenges. Wight's "Flash Memoir" promotes the belief that we all share sparks of the extraordinary that occur in our everyday life. Each short story is true and brings a smile of recognition to her readers: that life transports and enthralls us in all its confusing, amusing, challenging, and astonishing ways. Each story is light-hearted and short - like a flash - but be prepared for a page-turner that keeps you in your seat, smiling.

Pamela Wight is a successful author of romantic suspense novels; three illustrated children's book, BIRDS OF PARADISE, MOLLY FINDS HER PURR, and PETEY WANTS WINGS; and a "flash" memoir, FLASHES OF LIFE.
Her first book, THE RIGHT WRONG MAN, got rave reviews for taking readers "on an exciting adventure with lots of intrigue, unexpected plot twists, and romance." A year later, Wight published her second novel, TWIN DESIRES. "Lots of suspense, plot twists, romance, and excellent character development makes this a fun read!"
The gorgeously illustrated children's book, BIRDS OF PARADISE, finalist in the 2018 International Book Awards, has received many enthusiastic reviews: "This creative, compassionate story about birds will inspire children to notice the everyday adventures of backyard birds."
Wight's second picture book, MOLLY FINDS HER PURR, published Fall, 2019, follows Molly the Cat, who can’t find any friends. And almost worse, she can’t find her purr. After looking for friendship in all the wrong places, Molly learns that making friends is as easy as looking up in the trees and on the ground, where other lonely creatures are hiding in plain sight. Whether hard-shelled or soft as a bunny, everyone needs friendships that help them find their purr.
PETEY WANTS WINGS, Wight's newest children's book, was co-authored with her 11-year-old grandson and again illustrated by the talented Shelly Steinle. Despite his great life as a squirrel with many friends, Petey is unhappy. He knows that if he could fly like his bird friend Bessie, then his life would be complete. A magical dragonfly grants Petey his wish, but only if he gives up something important. Through misadventures and surprises, Petey discovers that changing himself to be like someone else won’t bring him joy. In fact, taking away his own unique skills could be his downfall. By the end of the tale, Petey discovers how special it is …. to be himself. All three books are written for ages 3 to 93.
And proving that an author can write and publish in many genres, Wight penned a popular "flash" memoir, FLASHES OF LIFE. These light-hearted short stories acknowledge the "aha" sparks in our everyday, ordinary live that, in truth, are quite extraordinary.
Pamela earned her Master's in English from Drew University, continued with postgraduate work at UC Berkeley in publishing, and teaches creative writing classes in Boston and San Francisco.
She lives in the Boston area with her "right man" and hikes the New England trails while concocting her stories. Wight travels frequently to the San Francisco Bay area for additional inspiration. She speaks to book clubs, schools, and libraries in both locations.
Many readers enjoy her "biweekly blog on daily living" called Roughwighting.
