The Authors

J. Robert Whittle - 3x Bestselling Author and 2x IPPY Award Winning Author

Joyce Sandilands – 2x IPPY Award Winning Publisher and 1x IPPY Award Winning Author

Please note: We do not accept manuscripts.

Robert and Joyce are a Canadian husband/wife team who live in the beautiful Canadian Pacific Northwest in Victoria, British Columbia. In the past 12 years, without any previous writing or publishing experience, they successfully wrote and produced ten page-turning novels beloved by countless thousands of readers and whole families around the world.

When you discover that three of these books are Canadian Bestsellers and two are Independent Publisher (IPPY) GOLD MEDAL Award winners you may think that that is quite remarkable achievement for only 13 years worth of effort by these two senior achievers. When you add in two children’s chapter books and various audio products into the mix, I think you would agree that they have pulled off quite a remarkable feat considering the way in which they market and sell these products. To read their story check out Robert’s Bio.

Their books are available through select Vancouver Island bookstoresmarkets and craft shows and in Our Store on this website.

Whittle’s bestselling novels are: Lizzie : Lethal Innocence, Bound by Loyalty, and Loyalty’s Reward. Their IPPY GOLD MEDAL winning historical romance novels are Loyalty’s Haven (2007) and Whispers Across Time (2008).
