[stylist] The passing of Mark Marvel of Blind Ambitions Groups

[Kyle woodard]

Blind Ambitions Magazine is a magazine by the blind for the blind. That was
Mark Marvel started. I have been writing for the magazine for the past year
as well as been helping Mark in it's promotion and development. We have had
some delays along the way but we are continuing with the Magazine in memory
of Mark so that we can make his dream a reality even though he is not with
us to see it come to fruition.  Once we overcome some technology challenges
we are currently facing we should have the April issue of the magazine up
in a few days. You can email me dirrectly at my work email
kyle.woodard at blindambitionsmagazine.org or you may call me as well.
512-992-6346 In the upcoming months we will be looking for more writers to
help contribute as well. Thanks, Kyle
