On Saturday, October 17th from 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM we will be at Kazoo Books!

We're excited to be talking about a potential new service opportunity in publishing and editing for people who are blind and visually impaired. We are looking to gauge the community's interest and spread awareness for blind employment and for disabled and neurodivergent people in publishing.

All are welcomed to attend!
