Since 1996 Janice Sims has published thirteen novels and has had nine stories included in anthologies. She is the type of writer who feels she can always improve upon her craft, so she is a perpetual student of all things literary. If truth be told, she prefers reading to writing any day. Writing is hard work. Reading is pure pleasure. Still, she's a compulsive writer who will probably be writing on the day she dies and will ask Saint Peter at the Pearly Gates if she can bring her laptop with her to heaven.
