Just some questions to consider when writing the Accessibility notes for your event or your venue!

white text on a blue background, with an icon of a person in a wheelchair beside the heading "accessibility at your events".

the body text reads, "Some things to consider adding to your Accessibility section for your event and/or your venue, from a disabled man.

“The venue is semi-wheelchair accessible” is a good place to start, but when planning a night out, more information is better than less!

Accessibility is the most basic thing I look for in a venue, especially for events."

$white text on a blue background, with an icon of a cane beside the heading "accessibility at your events". Firstly, not all wheelchairs look the same. Motorised and power chairs might be wider, longer, or heavier than lighter chars without a motor - these chairs may need more space to go through doorways. Secondly, wheelchair-users are only a fraction of disabled people who may have additional access requirements - some people use canes, crutches, frames, rollators. Some may be photosensitive or use hearing aids, etc.$

After finishing Hungerstone (recent Carmilla-inspired novel) by Kat Dunn this morning, I'm at 51! Mostly by queer authors, ~20 by trans and/or nonbinary authors, and a few I learned about through your posts (Dorley book 1, Trans/rad/fem, and Magica Riot)

First event of the Birmingham Literary Festival* tonight, a good-humoured conversation with the authors of a modern retelling of Carmilla (horny lesbian vampires) and a story of how Mary Shelley came to write Frankenstein (lusting after annoying men).
