Some women are mama bears. Me? I’m more of an unfiltered, frazzled bear.
Hi, I’m Jyl Barlow. Welcome to my world.
What am I? I’m a writer, humorist, and travel planner.
Who am I? I’m kind, generous, and a friend to all. I’m also sassy, silly, and mostly unable not to laugh at inappropriate times. In other words, I make funerals fun.
While I’ve been writing stories since I first picked up a pencil, I honed in on it when I became a stepmother in 2012 and realized that the blended family community could use someone like me to add a little humor to its tumultuous path. Since then, I’ve published two books on the topic with more to come.
I do write about other things, especially uncomfortable topics, because shouldn’t those be the things we banter about the most? We are all in this life together, after all.
I hope you enjoy getting to know me. I’d love to get to know you, too!
