Frances Prentice Author

Frances Prentice is a mother of six, including one stillborn, who lives with her husband and two youngest children on a cattle property in rural Queensland. She juggles her writing with home schooling, tutoring and running a home school co-op. She loves creating stories with young people and is planning to self-publish works she has co-written with young authors. She has a passion for helping people with reading and writing difficulties so they can experience the joy she has had in literature. She is an avid reader of middle-grade and young adult fiction, who first dreamt of being an author at the age of eight. She always thought she would be middle-aged when she began this career, once she had some life experience. This is her first middle-grade novel, and a dream come true.
