This is a pen name I use when writing fiction. Frank James Rice was a real person, and my great-great grandfather. He lived in the 19th century and was a Medical Doctor and Surgeon. He succumbed to Yellow Fever in 1878. I have always felt he had a great literary name - all monosyllabic with just the right blend of cacophony. Two unpublished compilations, "Waiting for Spring" and "Tales from Mordecai Island," comprising more than thirty short stories, have been written under the name of Frank James Rice.
