kestrellKes: I'm currently taking a course on web design, so I'm using it as an opportunity to collect some of my writing.
Questions for the audience:
1. What do you think of the outline and list of writings below?
2. Is there anything specific, not included in the list below, that you would like to see included on the new webpage?
The GitHub guide and the new essay are not online yet, so that will be new material. I'm trying very hard to keep the plan reasonable but, reasonable not being my strong suit, I might add more.
Also, I'm not too jazzed about the title, but I want it to use the words "disability" and "technology" for search engine reasons, or is that an outdated web design idea?
Title: Kestrell's Disability and Technology Resources
Main page:
About me section
I'm a blind writer, disability and technology advocate, and MIT graduate. My writing focuses on disability and technology, which can include images of disability in science fiction, assistive technology, and accessible books.

Second section containing unordered list of links to pages containing writing:
1. to my blog my blog
2. New essay about disability in spec fic
3. Quick Start Guide for Using Jaws with GitHub
4. What Good Writers Still Get Wrong about Blind People,
Part 1 ,
Part 2
and Part 3
5. My thesis Decloaking Disability: Images of Disability and Technology in Science Fiction Media

Alexx helped me fill out a survey form from Medicare yesterday, and three-fourths of it was about pain levels and mental health, how they interferedwith activites and quality of life, but it didn't offer any resources for finding support for either of these conditions. One of the last questions was about urine leakage, and then it got into whether one talked to a doctor, and it suggested surgery, and medications, etc. And I was yelling, "*This* is what Medicare is taking seriously enough to push spend money on?!!!".y
