About the Author: Joyce was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan. She is retired and now lives in Arcadia, California. She started her career as a stenographer at a major utility company in Detroit, working her way up through supervisor of word processing, then as the office manager for an automotive advertising agency, and, lastly, as an executive assistant at a large non-profit health maintenance organization. She is also a professional proofreader (one of her clients was eHarmony, the popular dating service). All of these positions were leading her into writing and becoming an author. She wrote this, her first book, Line of Serenity (a memoir), in 1997. Being the oldest of seven, in a very happy family, Joyce wanted to capture the way their parents raised them so that the way they did it would not be lost when they all passed on. The book goes from 1944 (the year Joyce was born) through 1977 and includes family recipes and photographs. Recipes, because food was and still is an important part of their family's fabric; photographs, so that descendents can see what their ancestors looked like. Joyce gets her inspiration from living and observing life. In addition to "Line of Serenity," she has written seven other books about relationships ("The Best Way to Keep a Man is to Let Him Go [among other things]"); parenting ("Mother's Dozen: An Easy Recipe for Raising GREAT Kids!") which is also available in Spanish; children's fiction ("Jette Black and Her Seven Friends," and "THE VISION: Telling Kids That They Can Make the World a Better Place"); bullying ("Dear Bully: A Collection of Poems about Bullying"); and the power and simplicity of quotes ("My Simple Quotes to Live By"). She will publish her ninth book, "A Breast Cancer Journey to GREATER Joy! Taking the fear and mystery out of a breast cancer diagnosis," in the 4th Quarter 2014. All of her books are described at www.GoodShortBooks.com, a Web site that she shares with her sister (Anita) who has written one book, "My 15 Dogs: A 55-Year Journey of Love."
