Jill Martin

Writing has been a lifelong passion for Jill Martin. After a career as an education lawyer, Jill has focused on writing in many forms, including short stories. She has completed her first novel, “Variations on Jenny.” Jill lives in Northern Virginia, travels extensively with her husband, and writes a blog about the lessons she gathers along the way. Jill volunteers as a teacher of English as a Second Language (ESL) for adults, and — during a break from law — worked as a middle school ESL teacher. That experience inspired the story “Osama.”
