Hi Brenda,
This is meant in the best possible way. Please be sure that what you are looking at is really inaccessible, and that you are using your screen reader properly. I'd be glad to check out the sites you mention, and even though I'm a JAWS user, help you with anything you may be having trouble with.

Thanks.

Jim

Subject: [stylist] Introduction and question

Hi
I am new to this list.  Until recently I went through my life as a
partial sighted person reading print with adaptive equipment.   I have
taken several writing courses and feel I have the ability but need
direction and structure/discipline.  In the last several years my vision
has faded to the point where I use a screen reader (Window eyes).

the internet is a wonderful place and Window Eyes has helped me navigate
it.  However, the internet is not totally accessible.  I would like to
take a writing workshop via the internet.  I have researched 3 options,
none of which seems to fit.  Writersdigest.com has a nonaccessible
workshop platform.  Writers.com is not well known and I cannot document
it.  I will be contacting Gotham Press tomorrow, but their website is
not 100%accessible although most of the things in the workshop sample
are accessible.

If anyone knows of any accessible, reputable online workshops, please
let me know.

thanks for any help.
Brenda
