I have spent thousands of my partner's money to publish my books. I have earned way less. As a disabled person, I have never been able to support myself financially. Breaks my heart. I have no strength for marketing. Struggling to breathe takes too much.

Dr. Tingle, are you able to pay all living expenses completely on book income or do you receive support from a spouse or family?
I ask because I personally don't have a "day job" due to chronic illness but I do have to rely on family to pay the bills

Setting boundaries isn’t optional for disabled & neurodivergent freelancers — it’s survival. 💛 Here are scripts, real talk, and gentle tools to help you protect your time, rates, and energy. #DisabledWriters #FreelanceLife
How to Set Boundaries and Say No as a Disabled Freelancer (Scripts & Real Talk)
Freelancing for disabled and neurodivergent individuals requires effective boundary-setting to manage limited energy and unconventional schedules. Scripts help navigate client interactions without feeling guilty. Establishing accessible boundaries protects personal well-being and energy, fostering better client relationships. Respect for boundaries leads to sustainable work and healthier professional dynamics.

Freelance platforms promise flexibility, but the reality is tougher for disabled & neurodivergent writers. Here’s the advice they won’t give you—and how to truly thrive, on your terms. #DisabledWriters #Dreamspace #FreelanceTruths
What Freelance Platforms Don’t Tell Disabled Writers (And How to Actually Thrive Anyway)
Freelance platforms promise flexibility but often overlook the needs of disabled, neurodivergent, and chronically ill individuals. Many processes are inaccessible, and low competition leads to underpayment. Building a fulfilling freelance career requires advocating for oneself, focusing on niche expertise, fostering community support, and redefining personal success beyond conventional measures.

This week, I've started sending Lumi (early MG) out to agents. It's a cosy detective mystery in a typical English village, starring 2 ND MCs, including one who lives in a treehouse with a cockatoo and a talking umbrella. Keep everything crossed! #mg #amquerying #kidlit #

Are there any groups for #disabled writers out there? I’m thinking more for beginners.
I have an idea I’ve been knocking around in my head. I figure the only way it’ll get done is with an accountability group.

Bonus Clue! I forgot to mention Sidney: Lumi’s pet cockatoo and the start of it all.
He steals bug books and has very strong opinions on just about everything. He might just solve the case himself.
