yes! there are a lot of people who use screen readers and rely on descriptions that are available as ALT text or a reply to the image. it doesn’t need to be super detailed, just enough so the person can understand it. 💕

#WritingCommunity I'm going to post this again since this is a different tag. I am a professional proofreader, if any of you are in need of such services. :-) I also do some light editing for clarity and structure. I mainly do non-fiction stuff, but I have done some fiction work. Any other hashtags?

I've taken this most excellent workshop! If you're looking to create a group, nurture community, grow your facilitation skills... Martha's approach is refreshing and empowering.

Martha Crawford @shrinkthinks

Therapists do not own gathering together in a circle and connecting to others.

If you are interesting in building or facilitating a community group of any kind I've set up a workshop to help you build it out and frame it up.

@shrinkthinks —IDK how I missed this when it came out. Am in tears. Both in solidarity & gratitude. You've articulated so perfectly so much of what I went through and still experience.

It also evokes the theme that is galvanizing me increasingly: #AccessIsLove via #DisabilityVisibilityProject

What's the last book you read that blew your mind, and why? It could be just a few weeks ago, or months, or years, etc, depending on how easily your mind gets blown! Curious to see your recommendations.

Hi #WritersofSpoutible ! I write CNF and some fiction. I've written spoken word, poetry, monologues, and spent last summer deep in Flash at Smokelong's great Summer Workshop.
Themes lately? Disrupting the trauma-survivor-as-resilient-inspiring-hero-in-memoir trope.
Nice to meet everyone!

Hello friends! For the writers among us the hashtag #WritersofSpoutible could use more love. How about a fun round of introduction? Talk about what you write and a recurring theme in your work if possible. 👀
I write mainly #mglit but I have some #YA on the side. My recurring theme is found family.

I love this. What a beautiful & meaningful way to connect. My hands are too sore to take on a big project, but maybe one day I could help w/something small.
