Dorothy Rice is a native San Franciscan living in Sacramento with her husband, the youngest of five children (ages 14-33), and a menagerie of pets, including a black cat that thinks she’s a dog and a guinea pig named Marmalade-Jam whose thoughts are, as yet, unclear. Recently retired from a 35-year career in environmental protection during which she clambered up the rungs of the state civil service ladder, she is now a fiction MFA candidate at UC Riverside’s Palm Desert Campus and working on what feels like the millionth draft of a novel of mysterious suspense inspired by her father’s paintings, many of which can be seen at: http://www.josephflaviusrice.com
