I don't believe it's just by blind authors. I think it encompasses any
disability.

Donna,
Thanks. I researched it and saw the website. Wow, I did not realize they
had 
a first edition on bard. I'll have to
read it then! This should be cool. I 've always wanted to read a
collection 
of work by blind people. I've read a few memoirs, but not  something
like 
this.

I'm confused like you all are. The anthology was mentioned online. But
it did not indicate they had a second edition. It meerly indicates they
will 
publish one and accepted submissions until March 15.

I'm glad many of you are in it. When it becomes accessible, I'll read
it.

Ashley,
As I understand it, Behind Our Eyes  is a journal of writing contributed
by blind people -- us telling our own stories. The first edition came
out years ago (2007, I think), and that one is on NLS's BARD site. They
recently took submissions for a second edition, which is apparently out,
though there doesn't seem to have been much done yet to notify the
contributors or put it into an accessible format. It is put together by
the folks who put out Magnets & Ladders, which is an online magazine
featuring the work of people with disabilities. The group is a
registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit. HTH, Donna

And what is behind our eyes? Is this just a book or more?

Hi All,
I visited the Behind Our Eyes website and couldn't find any indication
that the new book is out. I Googled it and the first edition was there
on Amazon, but I haven't found the one that Lynda and Myrna saw. So, I
wrote to them, telling them of our discussion today and that Bridgit
wants to acknowledge the contributors in Slate & Style. I'll let you
know if I hear anything. Donna
