Today’s events, like Covid, are the history of tomorrow, yet events witnessed in our everyday life seem to lack stunning importance, depth of human struggles, triumphs, and suffering. To me, writing and research is reaching back into the soul of the past so the present generation may learn from ignorance, arrogance, and past mistakes, and be inspired by all the things our ancestors did not have and the sacrifices they made so we may live today. Perhaps with some of this knowledge, they will become responsible for the future of the Earth, civilization, and for those generations that are to follow. We are tomorrow's history, today. -Janie Lynn Panagopoulos Janie Lynn Panagopoulos, Great Lakes author and historian, has worked in historical research, interpretation, and writing for over 40 years. Her love of writing started at an early age when her third-grade teacher, Miss Lucile Richardson at Washington Elementary School, Owosso, Michigan, suggested she talked too much and daily assigned her a chair in the classroom corner facing the wall. Midway through the school year, her wise teacher gave Janie a notebook and pencil and advised her to learn how to express herself without disrupting the class by writing; this was when and where it all began. |
