She went on to medical school at the University of Utah, and then trained in Internal Medicine at the University of Texas Southwestern in Dallas. She practiced medicine for 37 years before retiring in 2016. Blind Fish Don’t Talk may be her first published novel, but PJ has been preparing for this second career as a writer since childhood.
