Welcome!
To the web page of me, Frances Boyle. I'm an award-winning writer of poetry and fiction based in Ottawa, Ontario.
Seeking Shade, my short story collection, from The Porcupines Quill is now available!
My second poetry collection, This White Nest, from Quattro Books came out late in 2019,
My novella, Tower, from Fish Gotta Swim Editions, published in 2018, received some (very positive) reviews and made a list of 2018 faves - see the Media page.
I've also published another full-length collection of poetry, as well as several chapbooks and many poems and stories in magazines and anthologies.
" We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time. "
T. S. Eliot, "Little Gidding"
