Every now and then a person googles their name just for the hell of it. So with that said, I found some fairly familiar as well as unfamiliar sites where my work has been posted. I want to thank each an everyone that has posted information, write-ups, interviews and reviews. Although it's very difficult to get readers to write/post reviews, I do appreciate every review I receive.

Amelia series


For the Sake of Amelia Tormented was my first novel I ever wrote. Although I didn't have experience in the field of writing, I felt the need to tell a story where the characters were true to life. I have received many compliments on the Amelia series, although some individuals find my writing style a bit to informative.

 Mind Of A Madman Evil Unleashed- Mind Boggling!, May 23, 2012By Robert C. NelsonThis review is from: Mind of a Madman Evil Unleashed (Paperback)Mind Of A Madman Evil Unleashed by V. J. Bowen definitely plays games with your head as it allows you to get inside the mind of a deranged, homicidal maniac bent on revenge for any perceived injustice done to him. Whether the foe be real or imagined, human or animal, it doesn't matter. Caleb delivers his own brand of justice. The poor policemen and police dog forced to track him across state lines after he escapes from prison are driven to the brink of psychological breakdown themselves as they fight the clock to stop Caleb before he strikes again. And he will strike again if given the chance: the pain in his mind is too strong to hold back.

This story ends in a cliff-hanger! So, it means a reader MUST continue! That is not a problem since there is the next novel ready to read. And read it I will!


This is a great story! I can hardly wait to read the next one!
