Author Bio

Mary Frances was brought up in Nottingham but moved to Bristol in 1961 with her librarian husband. Going from temp job to tempt job for 'cash on a Friday', with intervals as a portrait artist, running her own Art & Design company, a Bristol City Councillor and, finally, as a qualified journalist with a college diploma and a National Award, she at last resigned from her role as reporter and feature writer in order to do what she had dreamed of doing all her life: Write books. The Wings of Woolcot is her fifth, but she assures everyone that there is no question of her giving up doing what she loves. She has two sons, both living in Bristol, one a college lecturer in song writing and the other as an NHS support assistant in a psychiatric hospital. They are both deeply involved and successful in the music industry.
