Comment from Lucy de Welles
Exciting story. Moves along well. Conversation structure is good. Werewolf story told in a way I haven't heard it before.
Small suggestions:
"Dog blast it!"
neighbors. It was...
Found bio self-deprecating. This writer clearly able to write better than average. Better to say, "I'll master this craft and God and all these nice people will help me to do that."
Thank you for the opportunity for reviewing your work.
Keep on keeping on!

Enjoy a good wolf story. That is where I will begin.
Perhaps move They had the biggest... to behind in the 50's - makes the sentence more active.
The last paragraph is a run-on sentence. Maybe look at it again and consider tight sentences. Perhaps along the lines of Outside, across the moonlit plain, a weary backpacker walked the only road through Branford, Texas. He heard the strange, muffled sounds of faraway howls and quickened his pace.
My reviews are mere suggestions. Feel free to use anything that provides assistance and/or chuck the whole shebang.
