Hi Carmella, and all,
Welcome back, Carmella. I've just recently come back too, actualy. Good to
hear you're moving forward. Onward & upward!
Carmella, I urge you to write a blog post (at least), and perhaps share it
here also. A post discussing your process for getting your book into the
NLS, and recording it as you mentioned you're doing, below. That would be a
post of interest to many authors, not just blind authors.
With what the AFB says is a market of more than 10 Million people who are
"severely visually impaired" in the USA alone (how many millions more
worldwide?), that's a large market of readers and consumers that many
authors would benefit from having their books in front of and made more
easily accessible to.
I urge you to share your experience, and whatever tips you can - for the
benefit and enjoyment of all.
Strive On!
