I just got back yesterday from a lovely vacation to Minnesota (partly to visit family and partly to go to a convention called CONvergence) and I'm slowly putting together a few posts for your viewing pleasure. Since I was flying across the country (from North Carolina to Minnesota) using a wheelchair for the first time, I have some interesting observations for you all...some pretty awesome, some not-so-much. Another post about intersections of geekdom and cripdom, and how there seems to be (to my experience) a higher-than-average number of visibly disabled folks in various areas of geek culture (gaming, comic books, anime, science fiction/fantasy, et al). I might also talk a bit about cosplay and body difference (like size and disability) as either its own post or a part of the post on geeky cripdom/crippy geekdom.
One final exciting thing coming up. Pattie Thomas of User Friendly Vegas is going to be guest blogging about her fantastic project. She also has a GoFundMe page set up for folks who want to contribute to the project.
Expect some posts in the next couple days!
