  • Artificial Divide book launch presentation by Robert Kingett
    Nov 23 2021

    Captioned and ASL version here.


    Robert Kingett talks about Artificial Divide and says a few words to other Blind writers.


    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.


    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, and M. Leona Godin

  • A Deserving Conference
    Mar 25 2021

    Our final podcast from the anthology IT CAME FROM THE COMMENT SECTION! couldn’t be more appropriate or seasonal. Typically our writer’s run dark – maybe that’s just the nature of creating compelling stories. But every now and then we get a story that’s full of empathy and compassion – a story such as this one from Robert Kingett. Please enjoy this personal and heartfelt tale that celebrates selflessness and humanity.
