Jackie,

Thank you. Due to a mild nerve condition, I do not often use Braille. I can
write it just fine, but reading it is tedious. It would be more convenient
doing what I do if I could use Braille	, but I make it work; I fully
support Braille and encourage all blind people to use it, but for those who
can't, I'm proof you can still be successful.

Bridgit,
an excellent piece of writing. 
About photo illustrations, I needed many photos from my CDs on Africa to
insert in my book. They were not labeled. It was a big problem having to
involve my son who was eight when we left, but he has a good memory for
names and places, and a friend who described each slide to me.
My biggest problem is further editing of my excerpt, (story),because it
changes the placement of the photos.
I find the more I right and try to use the  review mode without sight, the
harder it becomes.
I also wonder when the NFB will recognize very advanced age, involving
hearing loss and sight, and loss of feeling in the extremities (which means
no Braille recourse) as another category of disability.
Some of us have good brains trapped in there, and editors want new writers
that can be used again and again.
You appear to have a good on-line presence, as well as does Lynda. 
My respect to both of you for your productivity, and your willingness to
share with all of us.  

Bridgit
