[stylist] Publishing News and comments

Fri Mar 27 03:44:51 UTC 2009

Hello,

This is off-topic.  We agree on NFB and wanting to be good writers.  Let's
stick to these things.

Warm Regards,

Fred

Hear Hear, Judith Barbara and Alan! Race has nothing to do with it what so
ever. We all have deep fundamental issues with the way he is governing our
country, and that's why we don't support him.

I'm with you.  His socialist policies scare me.

>> Hi Listers:
>> Since I've been quite busy, I'm just now catching up with the last two 
>> weeks of your posts, so here goes!
>> First, (because I just can't resist) to all my conservative friends,
>> As one who went door-to-door in October, using all the skills I'd aquired

>> at Blind Inc. (graduating class1992), and as one who gathered with a
group 
>> of over 200 people on November 4, people of all races, genders, sexual 
>> orientations, religious backgrounds, and physical abilities, to cheer and

>> weep and celebrate the evolution of our country's collective mentality, I

>> have but one thing to say:
>> Obama 2012!!!
>> Second, as above mentioned, I attended Blind Inc. Every life skill I 
>> learned was instructed by a blind person, minus the home management 
>> section. As a newly blind person, the thought of traveling the
Minneapolis 
>> streets with a blind cane instructor, at first, scared the hell out of
me, 
>> but that lasted about a week, and I realized I had to relinquish 
>> prejudices if I were to succeed in accepting my own situation. Having
lost 
>> my sight at age 21, I had many years of ignorance to shed; my experiences

>> with the blind had been very limited and unfortunately, somewhat
negative. 
>> Without the NFB and Blind Inc, I'm not sure where I'd be or If I'd "be" 
>> right now.
>> I have fully accepted my blindness and when asked, as I have been many 
>> times, I can say with no hesitation that, if given the chance, I have no 
>> interest in regaining my sight. What I'd really like to be free of, is
the 
>> cause of my blindness; type 1 diabetes, but that, too, I have managed to 
>> find a certain level of comfort with, despite how much more it frustrates

>> me than the blindness ever has.
>> John:
>> I loved the years I lived in Minneapolis and St. Paul. You are so right 
>> about public transit and blind services. Love brought me to Florida and a

>> city where sidewalks and buses are very limited, and many a day, I wish 
>> for the good old days of waiting for a cross-town 94 in 20 below weather.

>> Sounds crazy, I suppose, but if I could convince the Floridian I love to 
>> move, we might very well end up as your neighbors, which I think would be

>> fabulous, as I truly enjoy your intellect and insight here on the list.
>> Finally, one of my novels, co-authored with Gabriel Horn, has been picked

>> up by a publisher, All Things That Matter Press, and will be available 
>> later this year. This is my first book-length publication, so, despite
the 
>> pesky diabetes, a little champagne has been consumed in celebration. 
>> Congratulations to Lori and Judith on your recent publications.
>> Please excuse the length of this message; just making up for lost time.
>> Amy Krout-Horn
