2008 Seniors and Grandparents FW

Posted by Janienne Jennrich Mar 4, 2008

Hello everyone,

I would like to introduce myself. I am the new Feature Writer for the Seniors and Grandparents area here at Suite 101. I have over 18 years writing and editing experience, have been published online and on the web, and have worked with seniors as companion and care giver. I have no grandchildren as yet, but my older sister does, and I am in close contact with her and my great nieces,

I thank the upper management and my editors, Fiona and Irene for this opportunity and look forward to doing them (and you, the reader) proud.

My hopes are that this blog will be a place of inspiration, mulling, brainstorming and thinking aloud. I ask only for your support and good thoughts as I embark on this new journey with you.

In the discussion area, I hope we will have lively and life-changing talks, laugh a little, maybe cry a little, and with any luck, improve our lives and the lives of others.

Sound a little sappy? Okay, so I'm a little sappy and a little hopeful. I think the community that can be felt on Suite 101 is a wonderful opportunity for people (including hose seniors and others who might otherwise be isolated), to be able to interact daily with others with similar backgrounds and concerns.

Please feel free to share your ideas for this section via an online post or a personal email to me.

All my best,

Janienne (btw, it's pronounced like "Janeen or Janine")
