Joanna Monahan lives in North Carolina with her husband, children, and two distracting cats.
Before she began writing, Joanna worked a variety of jobs, including marketing, professional
organizing, and setting up book fairs. She enjoys theater, baseball, and bookmarking recipes she will never make. A child of the 80s, she regrets that she no longer receives pizza coupons in exchange for reading.
You can find her at joannamonahan.com talking about books, writing, and all things GenX or on
Instagram where she regularly torments her characters by participating in fiction writing
Challenges.
Joanna is a proud member of the Women’s Fiction Writers Association, the North Carolina
Writers’ Network and the Author’s Guild.
About the Book: SOMETHING BETTER is a coming-of-(middle-) age tale of love, family, and
the dangers of attending your high school reunion. It was published in June 2023 by Blue Ink
Press.
