Breath and Shadow Winter Issue is up.


A few years ago I discovered a journal specifically for people with disabilities. I mean the writers of the articles have some disability. Disabilities run the gamut of health problems. I found I qualified to write for this publication because I have fibromyalgia, a physically limiting issue. I was honored they accepted my work.

I know of other writers who have contributed and the work in this journal is excellent. You can read more about it on Twitter, Facebook or  here  To learn about resources for people with disabilities, scroll down the blog and find articles that are helpful.

If you have submitted your work to Breath and Shadow or if you have read it, please leave a comment and tell us your thoughts.

I am including an email I received from the editor in chief of Breath and Shadow, Chris Kuell. If you can, please consider a tax-deductible donation to this organization.
