Janice L. Dick began writing in 1989 after attending a workshop at the local library. Attendees formed a writing group that met for over sixteen years. Janice continued to learn through courses and conferences, and wrote a couple short stories and inspirational articles that were published in the local paper and in her denominational magazine. In 2001, she plunged into writing her first novel, completing the story with two sequels. The first two won first place in The Word Guild’s Canadian Christian Writing Awards, and the third was shortlisted for the same award.

Besides a second historical trilogy, Janice also writes contemporary fiction, book reviews and blogs. She has written articles and short stories, devotionals and stories for children, and even a smattering of poetry.

Janice has edited a church history book, two chap books, a devotional volume, a women’s event book, several children’s books and an annual women’s conference magazine, and has mentored other writers, formally and informally. She is a member of WritersInk, InScribe Christian Writers’ Fellowship, American Christian Fiction Writers, The Word Guild and Saskatchewan Writers Guild.

Janice lives with her husband on a farm in east-central Saskatchewan. They have three grown, married children and eleven amazing grandchildren.
