Jan Sikes writes compelling and creative stories from the heart.

She openly admits that she never set out in life to be an author. But she had a story to tell. Not just any story, but a true story that rivals any fiction creation. She brought the entertaining true story to life through fictitious characters in an intricately woven tale that encompasses four books, accompanying music CDs, and a book of poetry and art.

And now, this author can’t find a way to put down the pen. She continues to write fiction and has published numerous award-winning short stories.

She published her debut paranormal romance novel, Ghostly Interference, Book 1 in The White Rune Series, in 2020, which won a bronze medal award from Reader’s Favorite. Jagged Feathers, book 2 of that series, won an Honorable Mention from Reader’s Favorite, and took first place in the 2022 Paranormal Romance Guild Reviewer’s Choice awards. Saddled Hearts, Book 3, released on October 19, 2022, earned 5-star reviews from Reader’s Favorite, a crowned heart review from InD’Tale Magazine and won first place in the DEAR Texas book awards.

 Jan is an active blogger, an avid fan of Texas music, and a grandmother of five. She resides in North Texas.
