Artificial Divide: a word from one of the editors, Robert Kingett - with ASL interpretation


Robert Kingett explains what Artificial Divide is all about.

About the book:
Step into a world of rogue screen readers, Braille in fantasy worlds, a friend meeting an acquaintance after several years, and more.

This #OwnVoices anthology features fiction by Blind and visually impaired authors showing readers how they thrive, hurt, get revenge, outsmart bullies, or go on epic adventures. Artificial Divide is an own-voices story collection that captures the many layers of Blindness and, for once, puts visually impaired protagonists in the driver's seat, letting us glimpse their lives.

When we think about it, we're not really divided.

With stories by: Eunice Cooper-Matchett - Anita Haas - Rebecca Blaevoet - Tessa Soderberg - Laurie Alice Eakes - Melissa Yuan-Innes - Jamieson Wolf - Ben Fulton - Felix Imonti - Niki White - M. Leona Godin - Ann Chiappetta - Lawrence Gunther - Heather Meares - Fabiyas M V - Jameyanne Fuller

An #introduction post, given recent influx, with hashtags to aid searchability.
I am O. Westin, a #writer of #MicroFiction, mostly #ScienceFiction and #fantasy #fiction, and occasional #poetry. My stories are generally less than 280 characters, because I also post to Twitter.

No set schedule, stories are written and posted when inspiration strikes.
I am LGBTQIA+ positive, and usually favour wholesome over darkness and edgy nihilism.
