Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Janice L. Dick has been writing since 1989. Her first two historical novels, Calm Before the Storm and Eye of the Storm, won first place in the historical fiction category of The Word Guild's Canadian Writing Awards. The third novel in the series, Out of the Storm, was short-listed for the same award.

These three novels were re-released under her own imprint, Tansy & Thistle Press, in 2020 and 2021.

Janice has also written a second historical fiction series called In Search of Freedom. Again, it is based on the stories of Mennonites from South Russia, since that is the author's heritage.

Besides historical fiction, Janice also writes long and short contemporary fiction, book reviews, blogs and non-fiction articles. Her first contemporary cozy series, The Happenstance Chronicles, currently features four books: The Road to Happenstance, Crazy About Maisie, Gossip & Grace, and Secrets & Second Chances.

Janice is the first winner of the Janette Oke Award, presented by InScribe Christian Writer’s Fellowship in 2016.

Janice writes from her farm home on the Saskatchewan prairies of Canada. She and her husband love farm life and enjoy their family of three married children and their spouses, and eleven grandchildren.
