About Mrs. Joyce

Mrs. Joyce was born and raised in Newburgh, New York, and is still here. My life is full of different experiences, and I don't hate men. They just gave me hell—almost every man in my lifetime—and because of that, I'm strong and flexible.

I’ve loved real deep and sometimes not at all. I’ve even hated, but now I’m at a point of living and loving me and mine. I listen to my mellow music and write. I hold my head up no matter what. This is how I survive and am glad to be alive.

By the way, look for Joyce Houston's other books: Visions, Outspoken and Bold, and Sticks and Stones.
