Patrick Sakala lives in Chipata, Zambia, and has worked with people all over the world, most of whom he has never met in person. As an executive assistant and virtual assistant to business owners in the United States and beyond, he spends his days talking with people through emails, messages and video calls.
That work led him to Wes Kussmaul of Reliable Identities. Helping Wes with research and editing showed Patrick how easily a name, a photo or a familiar account can be borrowed by someone else, and how few children are taught to notice.
Those two things together became Was It Tom?, the first book in the WIT series. When he isn’t writing, he’s probably watching football.
