[stylist] Publishing resources - cover designers, editors, formatters, and more

[Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter]

April,

I totally understand health issues. Taking care of yourself is the most
important thing.

Keep working at your nonvisual skills. No one learns them in a day. And we
shouldn't compare our progress to others because we all learn at different
paces and in different ways. You will get there.

Most of MS Office is 100% or near 100% accessible, especially Word, Excel
and Outlook when using a screenreader. My husband runs his own business, and
he relies on Excel. He's able to create complex formulas in Excel using JAWS
to navigate.

Thanks for the info. It's always appreciated.

Bridgit

This message is for all writers.

Thanks Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter,

    I had reasonable vision for 35 plus years.  I'm now 42.  Have been
trying to learn VoiceOver screenreader for two years.  My tiny hole of
vision won't last much longer.  I never do know what will be screen reader
compatible from one day to the next.  Every time I make a bit of progress, I
have a massive setback.  This last time, was four rotted teeth that it took
over two months, and three dentists, to finally get them out of my head.

    Anyway, here are the resources from my Twitter friend: @elizabethscraig

And available October 7: Angela Ackerman's One Stop for Writers.
http://www.onestopforwriters.com/ <http://www.onestopforwriters.com/>.  This
site is great, though parts of it are paid.  She has several great writing
thesaurus's, some cost, some are free.  I wrote a blog post for how great
her site is for the deafblind.  Here is that

Anyway, off for the day.  Exhausted.

Back to writing, studying braille, and VoiceOver tomorrow.  After a nap!
