After working half her adult life as an American Sign Language interpreter, and then a few more years in the medical field, Jeanie Martin has finally found her calling.

Writing is her passion, and she treasures the paths her research takes her.

That sounds weird. I'm sane, I promise.

It gets the creative juices flowing, and then when I sit back at the computer, I'm ready to go.

But sometimes, the most effective step is just to write. Start typing, and see what comes out. Some of my most memorable (to me) scenes have been created that way.(less)

It's having a skill that I can use which entertains people, maybe gives them a laugh, or causes them to shed a tear. Having an effect on anyone like that is humbling and empowering all at once.
