About Me

I'm a free-lance writer, better known as JanH1961 on myspace and several other 'places' online. As the writing has grown it was time to maintain something beyond just personal. Sometimes things overlap but there's work and - well sometimes play that looks suspiciously like work! Am from Illinois, now living in northwest Alabama until the right place comes along up across the Tennessee line. (Looking, haven't found it yet - or rather found an affordable one yet!)Articles, web content, profiles and SEO content have been some of the projects undertaken. While being available to cover a variety of topics, specialties have been dogs, horses, livestock and small farm/business subjects there have also been several travel articles, country music and "do it yourself" topics covered. WriteNowBiz came to be from as far back as a high school creative writing class that was an "easy filler" class.Topics covered - my niche topics that are infinitey easier and more numerous! Other topics have ranged from wedding photography to gift baskets to automobile fleet maintenance software to divorce articles. Within the niche topics for others (not my name on it) have been cats, rabbits, dogs, gardening, building sheds, disaster preparedness and band profiles. My website has the details for anyone who wants to see. www.writenowbiz.comIn addition to a few hired guidebooks I have the first of what will be three books out - "Getting By: Lessons From a Rural Past." It's available in e-book and print form through the website or at Lulu.comOnes to follow are about horses and country stories - real life stuff and a lot of the "I can't make this up!" stuff like the cow who outsmarted management and a veterinarian.http://www.constant-content.com/authorPc/15917- Jan_Hoadley-details-0.htm Photography images (absolutely NO entertainer photos - please don't ask).http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Jan_Hoadleyhttp://stor es.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=516886 Calendars & photography (NO entertainer photos sold ~ these were not taken with any intention of selling)

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Cool and interesting people everywhere!!! With so often working behind this thing it's nice to 'escape' sometimes. Defining who to meet excludes the chances of meeting those who could be friends, but no time for games.Free Banner by Bannersketch.com

Mr Ornery

He came into the household in IL from a pet store. We'd been half looking for a cat but face it - in a house full of dogs a cat has to be pretty special to fit in. I looked at him - the last one left ...
