The little engine that could that could had to try first

I've enjoyed reading the blogs of several of my friends and wished that I had a way with words that would make other people want to read about my experiences and thoughts. Most of my writing experience is in business and academic writing which tends to be fairly formulaic and would be boring in a blog. For that reason I had told myself and others that I did not have the skills needed to write a blog.
Everyone needs a friend who will say it like it is. My friend Andi said to me, "Well, have you tried?" Ouch.
So begins my foray into blogging. I expect to write about all sorts of things, brain tumors, autism, teenagers and whatever else happens to be going on in my life at the time.
Go ahead and give me comments. I'm more comfortable with two way conversations anyway!

  1. Wow, Jennifer! You have had a heck of a year to deal with! I admire your courage and tenacity. I saw your posting for your blog on Facebook and decided to take a peek. I hope you continue writing...I hear it can be a form of therapy - vent, get your feelings out there, cope, connect with others, and a way to share you experience in a way that is comfortable to you. I hope you are doing well and keep your spirits up. Enjoy your weekend and I look forward to reading more posts! Take care! ~Iris (Daly) Williams
