Jane Borden: Discover Why This Improv Comedy, Creative Essay, And American History Writer Wants You To Train Your Brain To Listen And Acknowledge Others

It's tempting to stop when the path becomes unfamiliar. But what if you remembered that the best stuff comes from discovery?

But would a devastating diagnosis strip away Jane's ability to write?   

Here's how Jane became an accomplished multi-published author, mastering dictation software along the way.
