    Rising Sign

    Thanks to everyone! It took me about 4.5 years to write the book, with a 1.5 year break in the middle. I'm working on the sequel now. Are you a writer too, Sosie?

    Rising Sign

    Hey all, I figured this was a good place to speak up. Forgive the moment of bragging, but I'm excited. My first novel, Rising Sign, was published this summer. It's an astrological fantasy novel and it's what would happen if the zodiac signs were made human and had powers. Gotten some great...

    I need to focus on writing better grammar

    Grammar is difficult for anyone to get, hearing or Deaf, but then you add in the fact that English is a second language for many Deaf people and I can only imagine the difficulties! I don't know what your grammar was like before, but I can definitely understand you. :) In a similar vein, as a...

    What is it like to be hearing?

    I love this thread. It's true; I'm sure many Deaf people get asked what it's like to be Deaf, but rarely am I asked what it's like to be a hearing person. Now that I live with Deaf roommates, we share experiences from different perspectives and I can't help but notice different ways that we...

    When did you come out?

    It's amazing; people seem to be coming out at younger and younger ages. I think that's awesome. Shows either more acceptance from society or bravery from youth or a combination of both. I knew all my life that I was gay, but I started to accept it at 14. Told my first friend at 16 that I was...

    *it's a choice"

    Usually, when people say to me, "It's a choice," I ask them in return, "Would you choose it?" Most people who ask that will respond in a firm negative and frankly, I don't think many people would choose to be an over-politicized, marginalized element of society. However, I believe that sexuality...

    Is it offensive to sign in public?

    This thread is fascinating to me, especially as a hearing person who wants to practice ASL. I came out of ASL class last night with a friend of mine and we were signing to each other to practice both expressive and receptive skills. I've gotten used to signing with my Deaf roommates and I...
