HELEN KELLER ONLY HAD TWO
If you have one major disability, that’s sad.
If you have two major disabilities, that’s a tragedy.
If you have three, Damn!
If you have four, that’s a catastrophe.
But if you have five—or more. That’s silly! it’s actually funny. Ain’ nobody gonna believe you anyway.
So forget disabilities!
I was born in Roanoke, VA, and grew up in Chesterfield County near Richmond. True stories, which depict my life vividly and uncompromisingly, are my passion: notably the memoirs CHILDHOOD and MOSSBACKDRAGON. I am currently completing my third memoir, THE ROYAL ROAD TO THEBES.

Especially not when you communicate poetically.
Believe you, that is. Because there’s a difference between having a disability and being disabled.
Hellen Keller knew that, and I think you do too.
Happy Valentine’s day to you and Sarah Lee.
