J.A. GIBBENS

is the author of The Awen Chronicles, a cross-genre trilogy of mystery and suspense, involving themes more often associated with literary novels.

Although involved in various creative arts, J. A. Gibbens studied science at the University of Waterloo, obtaining a BSc (Honours) in Biology and Chemistry, and a BEd from Queen’s University in Kingston. She has worked in a government research lab in western Canada and in the Pathology Lab of an Ontario  hospital. After graduation, she travelled solo in the Middle East, and later married.  She joined the staff at Guelph's Centennial CVI and taught there for twelve years, after which she remarried and entered the field of finance, establishing a financial services business with her partner.

For many years, 
J. A. Gibbens wrote for herself, consolidating the observations, experiences and musings she collected throughout her life. A reduction in travel opportunities provided time to focus on writing, and the result is the completion of the first two books of The Awen Chronicles: L’Orté Point––Book 1, released in 2021, and Cow on the Ice–ko på isen––Book 2, released in 2022. Look for the exciting third instalment of The Awen Chronicles––Epitaph: Full Circle (expected release 2023). All are being published through Friesen Press.

​Author, artist, and DIY enthusiast, J. A. Gibbens currently resides in southern Ontario, with her husband, and a woodchuck that lives under their deck.
