When Businesses Include

I cannot get enough of this video.

Yes, it may be a promotional gimmick, but it is for a real product launched in Turkey; check it here and read more about it here.

I can only dream what it is like to do things those far more able can do Can you imagine that for a few hours you are treated like a member of the community, and not as something no one knows what to do with or interact because to them you are different? It is inspiring. Living with a disability and using a motorised wheelchair, has its share of challenges but being part of a society that nurtures one's abilities despite their disabilities is a beautiful goal for us all to achieve, and I know that businesses like Sky Fitness Dunedin and PowerTech Training are definitely making that happen . . . for which I am thankful and fortunate to experience first hand.

Celebrate Different Experiences

A good friend of mine posted her experience with depression, which you can access via this link here . To say that it was eye opening is cliché, as what she described is something that I cannot even begin to appreciate or fathom for that matter. I never experienced it, except for the occasional bouts of mind-numbing boredom. But then, I do jump back up onto the bandwagon and keep on going. On the other hand, it made me think. Depression is experienced individually, and no one experience is the same (though there are similarities). In fact, we may experience eating the same ice cream differently from the person you are sharing said ice cream. Which brings me to today’s post, something that has been slowly but maturely wanting to get out, and absolutely nothing to do with depression. Many of you who frequent my blog may already know that I have a disability, and if you didn’t know then... well, now you do. My kind of disability isn’t a Johnny-come-lately thing, but one that

A small update

Hello, how is everyone doing? For my friends who are not in New Zealand, I thought it would be good to let you know that we have had a three week Level 3 lockdown here due to COVID. We're still under lockdown, but now at level 2. Naturally I have been working from home. For those who have been asking, my book is still in the process of being polished with the editor. I am not sure when the release will be. I have however started doodling with a new idea, but it's too early to show just yet. I am experimenting with writing episodic fiction, so watch this space.

Let's rage against them words

This week has started with a bang, in the most positive way imaginable. Fort starters, an opportunity presented itself and will be coming to fruition in early September. I will tell you what closer to the time. The other is my writing, it's coming along splendidly, with the second book in my first ever series coming out around 28 August 2020, if not a tad sooner.   I am very happy with the series too, as feedback for Dragoon 2-2   that has been receiving, both via Amazon reviews and word of mouth. The general consensus is that it is refreshing with its locations while remaining true to the genre, so yeah. I am hoping that the second book and the two-plus more planned would be just as good. Thing is, I doubt that I would be here without some encouragement and be able to access a pool of knowledge. you know who you are, thank you. One such pool of knowledge is Steff Green, a fellow writer and disabled person of awesome. Steff writes romances and paranormal stuff under the pen name St
