Thursday 13 - Why Some Men Have Dogs

Got this in an email and it made me smile :)


Why some men have dogs and not wives:-


  1. The later you are, the more excited your dogs are to see you.
  2. Dogs don't notice if you call them by another dog's name.
  3. Dogs like it if you leave a lot of things on the floor.
  4. A dog's parents never visit.
  5. Dogs agree that you have to raise your voice to get your point across.
  6. You never have to wait for a dog; they're ready to go 24 hours a day.
  7. Dogs find you amusing when you're drunk.
  8. Dogs like to go hunting and fishing.
  9. A dog will not wake you up at night to ask, “If I died, would you get another dog??”
  10. If a dog has babies, you can put an ad in the paper and give them away.
  11. A dog will let you put a studded collar on it without calling you a pervert.
  12. If a dog smells another dog on you, they don't get mad. They just think it's interesting.
  13. Dogs like to ride in the back of a pickup truck.
  14. And last, but not least: if a dog leaves, it won't take half of your stuff.

Website Updates

Bayley-Burke



Writing outside the lines..

I'm back...almost. Starting tomorrow I'm back on my writing schedule even if I'm only writing lists of things I need to do now that we've moved in. Words on the page, people! To help get myself in the groove, I updated my website.

Reccommended Read!!


Reviews have been few and far between for me this year, but THIS makes up for it! A wonderfully written review, 5 angels, plus a recommended read! Couldn't ask for better!

"Compromising Positions would have to be one of the best contemporary romance novels I have read in a long time. Jenna Bayley-Burke delivers it all, romance, humor, and great chemistry between her hero and heroine. It is so well written. The pace is great, and the story line fantastic."

"Ms. Bayley-Burke’s ability to get the balance between her main and secondary characters right is a testament to her writing skills and one of the reasons I’m looking forward to reading more of her novels. This is a curl up on the lounge and lose yourself in the story kind of read."

But MY favorite line? I fell in love with David from the start, tall, dark and handsome with the body of a Greek God and a heart of gold. Because even years after writing this story, I am STILL a little in love with David.
