Paying It Forward to Jan Sikes, RRBC Author

Today is the day I support fellow author Jan Sikes through the Pay It Forward initiative of the Rave Reviews Book Club. Each member is given the opportunity to “pay it forward” by supporting a fellow member and not promoting herself or himself that day.  If you are an author in search of a supportive home, then head over to the RRBC website and tell us that Jan sent you.

Jan’s creative approach to writing combines narrative and music, as she explains below. She is not only multi-talented, but she is also “multi-published” as well. You can check out her books and CDs below. Join the fun and support Jan on social media. Her links are listed below. Now here is Jan in her own words.

I am an Award Winning Author, screenwriter, songwriter and most of all an individual. I tell true stories in a creative and entertaining way. I love sharing what other authors are doing and any information I feel is useful to other authors. I also enjoy playing guitar and writing music. With each book I publish, I also release a music CD of original music that matches the time period of the book. This is something unique and I haven’t met many other authors who do this, but for me they go hand in hand. My stories all evolve and revolve around the music.

    Hi Jennie,

    I simply wanted to say hello and ask how you’re doing.

    The writing advice you have given me over the years has been very valuable to me.

    I think of you fondly.

    Love, Erica

    I had the privilege of posting Jan’s first 5* review of “The Convict and the Rose” on amazon.co.uk in July 2014. I just checked and find that I know and admire the work of the three other authors who also read and reviewed the book that year on amazon.co.uk! We are a family, held together by the power of the well-written word!
