84-year-old debut author Jill Fry describes what life was like for her as a low-vision child in her memoir ‘Born Too Soon’.
Blind crime writer Mark Hardie shares some of the tricks of his trade.
I dust off a gem written by a man who lost his sight when his brother shot him in the eye with an arrow!
