Jan Bowles – Where I Am
My Thoughts / March 13, 2018

Hello, Everyone Thank you for taking the time to read my blog. A lot has happened during the last post I made and this one. I won’t bore you with the details, but suffice to say my muse has taken a nose dive, and only now, 3 – 4 years later am I feeling the tentative tinglings of a new book working its way into my mind, determined to be told. (Even if it takes a year or two to get it down on paper so to speak).  I’m not ready to give up so easily. I was born with a creative mind, and I’m determined to do what I love best – create. After a drought of nearly 4 years, I have a long way to go. I’m being realistic, this may take a while. I hope you will all bear with me.  In the meantime, I shall begin reviewing books and writing about them here. I have read some great books over the years, so why not talk about them here. I will share the good and the great with all the many friends I have made over the years. Thanks for listening Jan Bowles

Quit your hollering. You know it’s me.” The old hound’s incessant barking cut right through Brett Sinclair as he fumbled to get his key in the lock after drinking far too much yet again. It didn’t help that Biff was now fourteen years old and almost totally deaf, meaning that he was easily spooked. Back in the day, every other dog in the neighborhood had feared his faithful companion, but now, in the twilight of his life, Biff’s bark was definitely worse than his bite. Feeling the worse for wear, Brett finally pushed open the sturdy oak door to the ranch house to be greeted by his best friend. Despite the advancing years, Biff still found enough energy to jump up at him, his ragged tongue basting his neck with an enthusiasm that demonstrated how pleased he was to see his master again.  “Yeah, yeah,…
