[stylist] Does Anyone Write Daily as a Routine No Matter What's Going On?

She wrote several other books too, and I always enjoyed her writing. My sixth grade teacher introduced me to her. I believe she was from Wisconsin as was my teacher. They may have even known each other. I like reading fiction by blind authors, although I haven't seen much, except on this list. I have read lots of memoirs and all, but not much fiction. If anyone has names of blind authors who have written fiction, I'd love to hear who they might be.    Debby
