About 95% is fiction, in case you didn't guess.<br /><br />The man yelling and me calling 911 and police officer Sara and me realizing the dog was most likely who the man was yelling at and making me feel a little chagrined is all true. But I honestly wasn't afraid. I was a little concerned that some dang fools were outside getting ready to fight. My hope was that it was with fists and not guns. <br /><br />I'm still glad I call 911. Nice to meet Officer Sara and I likely will have to put her in a story soon. But change the name to protect the innocent. And I actually will call the police anytime I am concerned. I'd rather call them 50 times and it be nothing than for something to happen and me not call. Not so much as happen to me but happen to someone else. <br /><br />Thanks everyone for your comments. There were several comments on FB because I posted it there. I try to encourage people to come read our Sleuthsayer.org site.<br /><br />And I want to offer belated congratulations to all our authors who have been nominated for awards or have won awards. I'm proud and humble to be included in this outstanding group.Jan Grapehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13323910083703514953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-11778959013840661132016-05-17T00:33:33.551-04:002016-05-17T00:33:33.551-04:00"I also made a mental note to tell her soon s..."I also made a mental note to tell her soon she should never put up with the guys just calling her a girl.
