Hi.

Welcome to This Awful/Awesome Life! My name is Frances Joyce. I am the publisher and editor of this magazine. We'll be exploring different topics each month to inform, entertain and inspire you. Meet new authors, sharpen your brain and pick up a few tips on life, love, entertaining and business. Enjoy and please share!

Next Month in This Awful Awesome Life - July 2019

116 daylight-landscape-reflection-1209610.jpg

For July, we’re going outdoors and on vacation. Where do you love to spend your summer days when you’re not working? Do you hide inside with the AC on full blast, head for the pool, work in the yard or hot the hiking and bike trails?

Where do you like to vacation? Are you a big city traveler, a beach bum or a mountain recluse?

We’ll be discussing fun and safety in the sun which includes proper hydration and sun screen. We’ll be asking Orlando Bartro about his latest trip to Italy and see if he has any travel tips to share.

Our writing team will be sharing some of their favorite travel spots and hopefully a few of their favorite memories.

I have my book picked out, but haven’t decided on what type of quiz I want to try, so look for a few surprises in our July issue.

Happy Reading!

Fran
