Frances Whiting is Queensland's favourite and best-known female columnist. For eight years her weekly column in the Sunday Mail has engaged her readers in the highs, lows and unique absurdities of life. Frances' reach is extending beyond Queensland's borders with her column now syndicated to the Sunday Telegraph in New South Wales and the Sunday Mail in South Australia. She is also Associate Editor of the Sunday Mail and Senior Feature writer. Married with a rapidly growing son, when she gets the time Frances plays the guitar (badly) and surfs (also badly). Her books are Oh to Be A Marching Girl and That's a Home Run Tiger, both published by Pan Macmillan.
