The writing sisters follows two blind sisters Lauren/ E.L Summees & Nicole / Luna Nyx Frost who love reading and writing poetry and fantasy. Join us as we embark in creative projects despite our disability.
We post writing videos consisting of writing advice, poetry reading and analyze. Writerly tag videos. Our mission with Enchanting tales publishing is to help fellow authors get their books out there and follow their dreams without letting obstacles get in their way. We post shorts showcasing indie books with author interviews through KoFi.
The pov definitely depends on the story for me. Like fantasy is good in third and things like ya dystopian or contemporary is good in first. Picking a favorite Powerpuff girl is hard. It's like picking a sailor scout. You can lean more towards one, but they're all great.
For some reason, the chat shut off while your stream was still going, so I wasn't able to respond to your question. But Fuzzy Lumpkins was a Powerpuff villain. He used to yell at people to get off his lawn. :)
@@thewritingsisters I write erotic and LGBTQ romance with disability representation, sensitive topics, and happily ever Afters. My latest book features a completely blind character who is African-American and gay, and his aunt has sheltered him for 20 years. Basically, the story is just about him learning how to live independently as a blind, black, and gay man.
@@thewritingsisters yes. Every book that I’ve written so far has had a blind character as a main character. The book after the one that I’m currently working on will have a deaf blind character. If you are interested in finding out more or reading, I can provide you with the information.
The day that I was watching this video was the same day that I was doing my presentation for my college course, the Level5 that I am doing in horticulture and at the time I had a lot to say, but I didn’t want to trip up my words and I still think that this is wrong and that Nicole should have the right to participate in the game even ate. It is an open table and if it was up to me if I was at that OpenTable, I would say no, you are being discriminatory and I would personally get off myself and help her with the game as best I could and not because I have two but because it’s the right thing to do
Hate you too. I personally don’t like the fact that Nicole was turned away for her disability and for her visual impairment because that’s discrimination and I don’t care how they try to justify it it’s discrimination and it’s self discrimination so they can’t say that they’re not in the wrong, and I understand how she feels because I’ve had experiences in my life where people have said to me that I can’t do the activity because I am visually impaired and they trying to not let me do the activity because of my visual impairment, and where I will have to fight to do the activity. I know what that’s like my friends and I have to dungeons and dragons and dungeon Masters comes more accessible and I apologise for the dictation it’s just I have a lot to say on the topic and I hope that this does become accessible because I want her to be able to go to Dungeons & Dragons convention and played a game with people because it is fun. I have a friend in Ireland to present so I think she should be able to play the game
If I were playing at an open table where the DM turned someone away for bigotry, I'd straight up leave the table. I don't think I'd be able have fun, trying to forget the DM turned someone away for their chromosomes, their melanin count, their ability to see or speak, etc. That Barnes and Noble situation sounds like total bs, and it sucks that happened to you. As an aside, I often think about how looking at phones, sheets, etc distracts from the fun of storytelling. I might get some braille dice so my table of sighted folks can play a session blindfolded. No narrative gimmick to it, just trying to play with less distractions. I am sensitive to how this kind of endeavor would make someone with visual impairments feel though, disability tourism and all that. I would love to hear some qualified opinions on it.
It would have to be tactile dice so they players would be able to be immersed in the game blindfolds are easy enough to buy sounds like a cool exp how would they get around the character sheet if blindfolded.
@@thewritingsisters I was thinking you could have a very simple system. Something like a simplified MAZES or FATE system. Or, perhaps, a total homebrew.
I’m glad this made u think of a way to spin it though this is common behavior I’ve also LARP for over ten years and was treated the same way some even chasing me out due to a misconception of them assuming my blindness is fake. I hope to showcase ways around this so other people in the same situation can enjoy the games
Baltimore has been around for years! A friend of a friend goes there all the time with her sci-fi author dad. I hope ya'll have fun! Get to know your table neighbors. When one of you do food or water runs, offer to pick something up for them, too. It's good to have 3 of you. While two or one of you runs the table the other one or two can explore. But break it up. 2 to 3 hours of running the table, then break to explore and stretch your legs. With anxiety, you'll probably get overstimulated, so make sure to check out some quiet spots to desensitize. My favorites are usually a panel room not being used at the time, so it's always good to pick up a schedule of panels so you know which rooms might be empty for 10 or so minutes. Or just make it easy to go back to your hotel room, if you have one.
Also, make a plan of action and budget. You don't want to go all wide-eyed after a piece if art and end up blowing all your money on it 😅 not speaking from experience at all...nope. plan to grab a shirt or something that commemorates you going. And maybe so many books, or art prints, and all that.
