Thank you for reading, Bootleg Press My name is Jack Stewart. I live on a sailboat in the Caribbean. I'm what they call a single-hander, an odd ball, a guy that sails alone. It's not that I don't like women, I do. I just like a different one in every port. Wait! does that sound sexist, I didn't mean it to sound that way. It's just that I was married to the finest woman that ever lived for twenty-three years. She's gone now, cancer. I could never deal with all that pain again, so now all my relationships are like ships passing in the night. I didn't start writing till the love of my life passed. It seems like all of a sudden I had an urge to entertain, you know to take my mind and the mind of others off the daily grind of ordinary living. I'm no Hemingway, no Mailer. I don't write because I've got something important to say, or to educate, or to influence. I write to entertain, only to entertain. It's enough. And if I help a person here or there to escape his pain or sorrow, or even if I just help someone wile away a boring afternoon, I'll feel like I've done my job. If you like one of my stories, feel free to email me at: jackstewart@bootlegpress.com and let me know. If, on the other hand, you don't, well, e-mail me anyway. I answer all my messages.
