Monument, CO – July 22, 2026 - With twenty years of service as an Air Force officer, Larry Patzer understands loyalty, sacrifice, and the unshakable bonds of duty. After another two decades in aerospace engineering, he redirected his energy into writing, bringing the values and lessons of military life into the world of fiction.

Patzer’s work resonates with veterans and active-duty service members because it reflects an insider’s perspective. He doesn’t sensationalize service; he writes with authenticity, grounded in lived experience. He also brings compassion, having spent years as a certified spiritual director and volunteer trauma chaplain.

“I’ve seen what service demands: the discipline, the cost, and the enduring impact it has on families,” Patzer explains. “Those realities stay with you, and they inform every part of who you are.”

Through his novels, Patzer creates stories that honor the resilience of those who serve while also exploring the emotional aftermath of their sacrifices.

Larry Patzer’s published works include The Palm Tree: A Coffee Shop Extraordinaire and The Past Always Comes Back. Both are available now wherever books are sold. Learn more at www.coffeecuppublishing.com.
