Occasionally radioactive with a chance of superpowers...Joules Evans takes sinceriously that age-old mantra: With great power comes great responsibility. In her quest to live up to her name and be good energy aka #goodjoujou in the world, she use them to fight cancer, and also to write...in the form of an author & a survivor turned accidental advocate/activist. Joules Evans is a writer, life coach, & activist based in Cincinnati, Ohio. Besides all that & a bag of chips, she's also a retired homeschool mama of 16 years. Joules and her hubcap Dave aka Mr. Joules keep busy being Gigi & Papa to their 6 Wonder Grands & following their grown kids chasing their dreams.

"Shaken Not Stirred... A Chemo Cocktail (A comedy about my tragedy)" is her first book, a literary roadmap of her cancer journey. It's not the first book she intended to write, but writers write about what they know, what falls in their lap, what they have to get off their chest. So besides getting the boobs that tried to kill her, quite literally, off her chest, she wrote "Shaken," as a series of postcards from the other side of cancer and chemo. Been there, done that, had to buy a new T-shirt. Don't wish you were here. But if you are, or somebody you love is, going through cancer, "Shaken" is one part hope, a dash of bitter, a splash of sweet, with a twist of humor, and served on the rocks. It's a comedy about her tragedy. Joules became an accidental activist through her cancer memoir & her work with David Jay's internationally acclaimed The SCAR Project "Breast Cancer is Not a Pink Ribbon" exhibit, & her work traveling the U.S. with Charise Isis's The Grace Project breast cancer & body image exhibit/movement.

Her second book #postcardsfromtheroad is a poetry book &... It's a series of literal postcards from the road from the literal intersection of a life, a conversation between a 53-year-old grown-ass woman and her 7-year-old wild-child self, rendered in poetry (mostly haiku) & snapshots. Which pairs as well as wine & cheese, as a both are snapshots of a moment in time. #postcardsfromtheroad strings together this collection of moments, like souvenirs from a journey, into a narrative of how we got from there to here, told to a little girl from her older self, sealed with a kiss. Though she be a small collection of very small poems, #postcardsfromtheroad is also an intersection of all the things we're not supposed to talk about, including politics, religion, cancer, and grief. Readers of author/life coach/activist Joules Evans's "Shaken Not Stirred... A Chemo Cocktail (A comedy about my tragedy)" will recognize her familiar voice and playful style, full of wit, wordplay, & wild-eyed wonder, with a healthy dash of irreverence thrown into the mix, and shaken not stirred, of course. It's a marriage of her poetry, prose, & photographs.
