“I am slowly discovering that writing is not just something I love to do, it is a fundamental aspect of who I am. It’s part of my processing machinery. When I was a little girl, for fun, I wrote stories about people, animals, inanimate objects, and gave them to people as presents,” said Hammer who calls Portland, OR and Seattle, WA hometowns. “I keep note cards in my pockets at all times, on the wards, on road trips, especially on long runs just in case that brilliant idea happens to ambush me while I’m on the trail. I have often felt that I must maintain my hobby on the sly. So to think that there is ‘merit’ for what I am possessed to do, often beyond my control, and to be included in a journal among others who seem to share my syndrome, I feel quite found and encouraged to continue.”
