About Me & My Blog
Somebody pinch me: I get to write for a living.
Every morning, I sit down in front of my Apple flat screen monitor and do what I love: help companies to communicate with their target audience. Over the past ten years, I have written extensively for many mediums, including websites, books, articles, press releases & customer success stories.
I’m passionate about communication. I believe in smart, straightforward language that doesn’t hide behind fancy words or bloated jargon. I believe that the best messages are the ones that touch an aspect of the greater human experience.
I believe that everything is connected, and I continually seek out experiences that expand my world view, from travel to art to social gatherings. Everything I taste + touch + hear + smell absolutely does influence my writing, and I wouldn’t want it to be any other way.
About This Blog
I use this blog as a place to offer a glimpse into the people,
places and things that inspire me; to share some of the methods that I
employ on a daily basis as a writer; to chronicle some of the
experiments that I undertake, from making yogurt to collecting art; and
to reflect upon issues that are important to me.
I’m an enthusiastic advocate of blogging; I love the connections that come from this medium, and the way that blogs allows people to take control of their own publishing, whether for personal reasons or to meet business objectives. I think we’re only just beginning to see what blogs can do, and that there are many exciting things to come. Blog on.
About My Work
I write for clients in the following industries: emerging technologies, Web 2.0, food and wine, and green or sustainable products and services.
I rarely, if ever, blog directly about the work I’m doing; if you’d like to know more about my work, check out my website, located at www.jenniferjeffrey.com.

Special Notes for 2008
My theme in 2008 is PLAY. Not as in playing games, but rather as in exploring the world, indulging in bouts of daydreaming and fits of silliness, meandering without purpose, seeking art in every day, and saying “yes” more often.
My color for 2008 is Pantone’s Blue Iris (18-3943), chosen by Pantone as their “color of the year” and one of my favorite colors ever. This is the color displayed in my blog banner, and a color I'll be talking about from time to time throughout the year.
