The creative juices of some members of the JETAA Jamaica Family were flowing during 2020-2021 - there were two publications and another was on the cusp of being published.

"My Own Big Woman" , which is written by Janette B. Fuller (JETAA Jamaica Vice President), was published in August 2020. Janette, who is a teacher, lives in Jamaica. Here is a little blurb to whet your appetite!
"After being abandoned by her lover of twenty-five years, Prudence returns to Jamaica from Canada where she'd spent close to four decades. Ill and infirm, she waits for death, but her feisty sister, Constance, who'd moved in with her, nurses her back to health.
Having recovered from her illness, Prudence looks forward to enjoying a hassle-free retirement. However, Constance starts to treat her like an intruder, taking over her house and her life. Since she doesn't have anywhere else to go, she decides to stay out of Constance's way and make the best of her situation, but Constance doesn't make it easy.
After a few years of Prudence being back in Jamaica, Constance falls ill. What causes Constance's illness and how does she fare now that Prudence is in charge?"
Note: Janette has written two other books that are also available from Amazon: Investing in our Success: A glimpse Into Our World and The Teacher's Gift" A Teacher's Perspective.
"Encounters" . which is written by Nadine K. Thompson, was published in December 2020. Nadine, who is an International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Teacher (PYP) focusing on inquiry-based learning, lives in China.
In Nadine's own words,
