17.44: Bodies, Why? (Part II: Working Through Disability)
Your Hosts: Mary Robinette, Fran Wilde, C.L. Polk, and Howard Tayler
Let’s talk for a bit about writing while disabled. This can mean anything from scheduling your craft around doctor’s appointments, to learning to operate on a limited budget as defined by your body.
You might be asking “I’m not disabled, so how does this pertain to me?” Well… you’re not disabled currently. Eventually, as we age, we all experience disability.
Liner Notes: Howard tweeted about his experience at the hand clinic.
Credits: This episode was recorded by Marshall Carr, Jr., and mastered by Alex Jackson.
Homework: This is a process homework. Explore your writing space and schedule. Take stock of the tools you have in place to take care of your physical needs while you work—the lighting, your chair, how often you stretch, eat, and hydrate. Then make a list of what you think might be missing.
Thing of the week: One for All, by Lillie Lainhoff.
