About The Author

Frances Joyce lives in Upper St. Clair, a suburb in the South Hills of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. She shares a mid-century modern home that’s in a constant state of renovation, with her four cats, Annika, Milo, Koho, and Mittens.

Frances grew up in Florida and attended college in North Carolina. While raising three sons, she lived all over the United States working in various career fields. Along the way, writing became her passion.

After freelancing for several local magazines, she started a monthly online publication, This Awful Awesome Life at thisawfulawesomelife.com.

‘Everything In Between’ is her third book. ‘Dancing in the Rain: Surviving Breast Cancer and Learning how to Embrace Life’ follows Frances and four other women through diagnosis, treatment, and finally, those all important words, “no evidence of disease”. “His Life’s Work’ is an action-thriller about a serial killer with Alzheimer’s Disease. Her books are available on amazon.com.

Frances loves hearing from fellow readers and writers at francesjoyce.com.

“A winner. Enjoyed it from beginning to end. The flow is

strong, and the characters are real.”
