Writer’s Voice with Francesca Rheannon
This week we talk with disability rights activist Elsa Sjunneson about life as a deaf-blind person and the rights every disabled person should have. Her book is Being Seen: One Deafblind Woman’s Fight to End Ableism.
Later in the show, we talk with Kathryn Nicolai about her book of stories for better sleep, Nothing Much Happens: Cozy and Calming Stories to Soothe Your Mind and Help You Sleep. It’s based on her wildly successful podcast of the same name.
