Good luck to you. You can master the J frame as Photoman44 noted. Dry fire is good. In my case I can't shoot one quickly without having the front sight jump to the right. I think that increasing the trigger reach by changing grips will help (I can shoot my LCR much better and it has a longer reach). But it's a challenge to find a good set of grips that still fit in a pocket.
Once you get good close, make sure to extend your range and practice as well. That will make you that much better up close. The bad guy that attacks you might not know that he's supposed to get within 15 feet first.
