Everyone has a story


Having worked as a journalist, magazine editor and communications officer in Vancouver, B.C., for the last 18 years, I am an enthusiastic wordsmith inspired by the people and world around me.

Proudly at the helm of Canadian Immigrant magazine as editor for several years, I am always looking for that next idea or strategy to keep stories fresh and relevant.

I like to say that "everyone has a story," and writers like myself can help put yours into the right words. Here's a little bit about mine.

On any given morning, you will find me at my computer with a steaming cup of French-press coffee, starting the day off by researching and writing a magazine article. Today it could be the life story of one of Canada's top female entrepreneurs; tomorrow it could be about trends in going green.

Then, with my coffee forgotten and rapidly cooling, I might move onto finalizing a speech or a press release.

With a fresh refill, I may end the day by writing website content, doing a little editorial planning or catching up on social media.

When I'm not at my keyboard, I am a soccer mom of three boys, who are my personal inspirations in life and work. I even gained a local following with my "Mom's the Word" column in the Post newsmagazine in Abbotsford, B.C., for my articles and personal reflections on life, love, marriage, divorce and parenting. 

Sincerely,
Margaret Jetelina
