Janice Anne Wheeler is a Chef Entrepreneur who is very excited to now be known as an author!  She grew up all over Upstate New York, graduated Cornell University Hotel School and headed West.  She is passionate about family, friends, healthy local food and Mother Nature.  Travel is in her blood, taking her amazing places, meeting incredible characters along the way.  

Her Colorado catering business & organic gardens were her creative outlet for two decades; that morphed into writing, sharing her unique outlook on the world.  Still obsessed with food, flavors and nutrition, now she cooks for her 'Friend Basket' (curious? read the book!) and donates her skills as a Private Chef to organizations such as Susan G. Komen, Wounded Warriors, American Cancer Society’s Hope Lodge, North Country Chamber of Commerce.  'Spicing Up The World' is her Secret Spice business; better Google that and get some!

Janice returned to New York three years ago to spend time with her father, investigated her genetics and found she possesses the BRCA2 Genetic Mutation.   Without many resources to draw on, she made a drastic choice to save her life, and The New Girls was written as she recovered from a Preventive Double Mastectomy.  This experience brought a strong desire to raise awareness of Breast Cancer, genetics and BRCA, the choices it entails. 

This first-time author has written a raw, personal, memoir. There are choices, drastic, serious choices, and The New Girls is written in a style you will not put down.  It is her profound hope that this resource helps others trying to face a decision similar to her own.  It has been a wild ride, and the journey continues.  If you or someone you know is facing such a decision, hopefully, The New Girls will give comfort, knowing that you are not alone.

Her second book, "On Hold", tells of the precious time spent with her father at the end of his life.  Her third, "Say What Needs to be Said", is in progress, with other ideas pounding around inside of her brain. 

She is healthy, happy, humorous and ready to share The New Girls with the world.
