I have an essay in the new collection Growing Up Disabled in Australia, all about what it was like coming to terms with being disabled, and how I’ve grappled with the complexities of the social model of disability. It’s the first personal piece I have written in a long time, so it is quite different to my usual more wonky articles.
The book is filled with an incredibly diverse selection of stories, edited by Carly Findlay, from a very wide range of people with disability, people with chronic illness, Deaf people and Autistic people, and is a wonderful read.
