Janice Exter Konstantinidis

Janice Exter Konstantinidis is a retired gerontologist whose life has unfolded across Australia, the United States, and, most recently, Paris—where she spends time delighting in the city and its architecture, peculiarities, and the ongoing adventure of learning French. She has made writing her primary focus, particularly in poetry and reflective prose. Her recently published memoir traces the unexpected and often unspoken turns of a life shaped by endurance, curiosity, and reinvention. Writing is a daily ritual—a way to notice, to revisit, and to honor what might otherwise be lost. She continues to write with regularity, often starting the day with a limerick and ending it with something more still.
