Hi, I was "hard of hearing" a long time and have been totally deaf 7 years. I have retired to central Oregon. My sister has been deaf since birth and lives in the SF Bay Area, and we visit back and forth. I'm writing a novel featuring deaf protagonist, and I'm looking for friends who sign (not necessarily deaf) who also write to exchange stories for critiques. Otherwise, I would just like to e-mail other deaf friends now and then.
