Everyday Connection

Jan in her own words: First and foremost, I am a mother and grandmother. I formed my opinions about life at an early age and they haven’t really changed much since then – I believe war does not create lasting solutions, love will be the real revolution, and the human heart can expand until it holds love for the whole world. I have been a teacher, a newspaper columnist, a bank teller, a house cleaner, an executive director of a non-profit dedicated to education advocacy, a diversity trainer, AIDS activist, a group facilitator, and a waitress. Whatever it took to raise 5 kids and remain true to my values. I can’t carry a tune, but I love to sing and don’t know any steps, but I love to dance! I have always used writing as a way to reflect on my own life and as a way to examine life's big questions. I have just started blogging recently. Mostly I have been concentrating on fiction and poetry. I CALL MYSELF EARTH GIRL is my first novel. http://www.icallmyselfearthgirl.com/
