A domestic violence survivor, Rosie Malezer was born in 1971 in Queensland, Australia. She is a profoundly Deaf / legally blind Indigenous Aussie author, writer, proof-reader, translator and Editorial Book Reviewer. Rosie is also a proud member of the Gubbi Gubbi tribe. Gubbi Gubbi Country is situated on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland. She studied AUSLAN (Australian Sign Language) in her youth and used it in her employment with the Queensland government to translate conversations between Deaf customers and police. When Rosie was diagnosed as profoundly Deaf in 2014, she studied ASL (American Sign Language) extensively under the guided tutelage of Dr Bill Vicars. Rosie's father - a retired MP of the Royal Australian Navy - trained her in the usage and safety of various guns at a very young age. Although she enjoys target shooting, Rosie is strictly against the idea of hunting for fun; unless you need to hunt an animal for food and clothing in order to survive, animals should be treated with respect and left to live in peace. Rosie is now a feline foster carer and in-house veterinary nurse. She dedicates all of her spare time to being the best mother and foster parent she can be to her feline masters, while promoting awareness of issues relating to domestic violence, the vilification of her own people in her home country, as well as standing up for Deaf rights. When not writing, she spends her time doing everything she can assisting other authors to attain their goals, whilst trying to remove the communication barriers between the Deaf and Hearing people of the world
