Hampton Roads Writers

Joyce Ireland

She writes short stories and flash fiction, usually thriller/suspense, and recently has begun submitting them for publication. Having moved to Virginia Beach in 2002, she was fortunate to find a couple creative writing/workshop type classes – one with the talented Ms. Strait. She also discovered midrash during a class at the Writer’s Studio in Virginia Beach, summer 2008. Joyce hopes to grow from her associations with local writers.
