Dec. 10th, 2014 09:48 pmI've volunteered to write something on bisexuality and disability, for a big project in which I would be one tiny cog (just how I like it!).
It's taken a lot longer than I'd hoped, but my problem isn't writer's block or that I don't know what I want to say, or anything -- as soon as I saw the possibility, I knew the basic shape of what I wanted to say, and even had the kind of punny title in mind that bisexuals seem to find endearing/mandatory.
No, my problem has been that I've realized that pretty much everything I think or write is, it turns out, about bisexuality or (my) disability. These things inform all my thinking. It's hard to pare my brain down to anything like an acceptable word limit!
But it's fun to try. I am getting there.
