Writings about Ataxia, being DeafBlind, family life. The best life can offer!


My first novel!

I do write, yes I do…

I have been working on a novel for the past ten years, on and off… mostly off…

Yesterday, I forced myself to work on it. And gosh, I was bushwhacked! I am actually on the home stretch!

I just have a kidnapping to write about, and then how this DeafBlind Dad saves his family. After that, the second draft is finally done!

I’ll edit it again!

I will probably self-publish, because the publishing people are generally selective… and I couldn’t stand the rejection letters!

Thanks for listening!
