Jan L. Mayes has been writing and blogging horror fiction and tinnitus-hyperacusis non-fiction for over 10 years. Her background in linguistics, audiology, and adult education—combined with over 30 years of experience coping with ghosts, tinnitus-hyperacusis, and plotting murders—have given her a broad base from which to approach many topics.

She is a 2019 International Book Awards winning finalist in Health: General for Tinnitus Toolbox Hyperacusis Handbook, and a 2013 international Eric Hoffer Award winner in non-fiction health for Tinnitus Treatment Toolbox. Jan is currently a member of A Writer’s Path writing club and the 10 Minute Novelists Facebook group.

Jan lives in the Pacific Northwest of Canada. She enjoys reading, cookies, needlework, and deadheading, as should all right thinking people.
