eelkat_red_scarf.jpgWendy Christine Allen, 2019, able to sit up in a chair for the first time in years, and able to raise up my arm and wiggle fingers. This was when I started playing Witcher 3 on Twitch as part of my physical therapy to regain finger movement. Playing Witcher 3 daily from 2016 to 2019, is how I regained the use of my thumb and two for fingers on my right hand... it is also why I stopped playing Witcher 3 in 2019, once I had strengthen my two forefingers enough to start typing again.

Wendy Christine Allen, Old Orchard Beach's Autistic Author, Artist, Illustrator, & Art Car Designer

Counting Down to the September 23, 2028 50th Anniversary of my first published book (September 23, 1978)

If you are here looking for The Twighlight Manor series, The Crystonite Wars series, The Wild Years series, The White Rock Asylum for the Criminally Insane series, The Twisted Tales series, the Captured By a MerMan series, The Space Dock 13 series, The Kats of Planet Ptarmagin series, the stories about Miss Citten the Eel-Kat, or the stories about Etiole... ALL of those series were combined and consolidated into The Adventures of Quaraun the Insane Pink Necromancer series in 2014, so ALL the different series, are now under one series title.

List of the published titles still in print:

The Index of over three thousand stories in The Pink Necromancer series

What the series is about, for those new here:

The introduction to The Pink Necromancer Series. 

If you want some stories to get you started in The Pink Necromancer series, reading these first will give you a good introduction to the 3 main characters:

My Elves Are JellyFish...and I asked Google AI and ChatGPT 5.6 what they thought of this.

As requested, my daily writing prompt series is now available print paperback editions on Amazon.

There are 20 volumes of this writing prompt series currently planned and in varying stages of finishing, hopefully all 20 will be published by the end of 2026. I likely will do a 2nd series of writing prompt books in 2027.

The first of the Visual Novels/Video Games for The Adventures of Quaraun the Inane/The Pink Necromancer series is published and available on Itch.io, there are 3 more planned for release in 2026, 6 more planned for release in 2027, and the big 60-hour 80k word 150 page one (Quaraun Goes To the Fair) is planned for a 2028 release.

There is a Pink Necromancer card game and a Pink Necromancer board game, as well as a Pink Necromancer table top RPG supliment for Dungeons and Dragons, all in the works, and to be released over the next couple of years as well.

Health update: August 4, 2026 - in recovery for 6 months+ (at least until mid-January 2027...all book and video game releases are pushed back at least 6 months) see video below for why...

Update Sept 3, 2026:

I am able to get around enough to take Koko to dog park... today is 29 days since getting out of hospital. My diet is still mostly liquid, but im eating some solid food again, but its like rice or soft mushy baby food type stuff because I still can not chew yet, though I can swallow again. My jaw is still not functioning good so im having trouble talking still. So there's been slight improvement to my mouth, throat, and jaw, but, zero improvement to my eye, which is a major concern, be Im almost fully blind right now. im legally blind since birth in my left eye, so I have no ability to fall back on using my left eye. My right eye is the one injured and my vision in it is "40% decreased" according to my doctor, but it wasn't good vision to begin with, and right now my right eye is not much different from my legally blind left eye. Which I why I have to have someone drive my car for me instead of me driving my car myself right now, which is very frustrating, because, being a female, I had to fight for over twenty years to be allowed to drive. I started sneaking out at age 31 and dressing as a man to go to Old Orchard Beach high school to get a ged, because us females are not allowed to go to school. And i was 37 years old when snuck out to the DMV and got a driver's permit and started going to college. I was 42 and 8 months pregnant when my family found out I was going to college and thats when I was punished by the backhoe driving over my house and my spine broken with a golf club and my baby born right then and killed with same golf club. So it's very frustrating now, so soon after finally being able to drive , to now not be able to drive because of an eye injury, especially after 14 years of being paralyzed from the golf club and not being allowed to have a wheelchair, again, because i am female and we females are simply not allowed to do anything. I hate the culture I was born into. I wish I had the freedom to go to school and drive a car the way American women do. I wish having my spine broken with a golf club and my baby killed with a golf club and a backhoe driven over my house was not how men in my family punishment women in my family for learning to read and write. Its so frustrating not being able to to drive again, so soon after 14 years being paralyzed, and being paralyzed by the golf club was the punishment for getting a driver's license back in 2013 after 30 years of men not letting me have one. I hate my family's culture and how they treat us women.

I get so sick of Americans telling me how they wish they could be a Gypsy… they are either misogynist woman hating pigs, or delusional idiots who haven't got a clue how shittily we Gypsy women are treated by Gypsy men, because no one in their righ mind who knows anything about Gypsy culture would ever want to be part of it. I hate that I was born a Gypsy. 

update sept 7, 2026

"You would not make a good teacher"... what does that mean, and why are there so many people on Railroad Ave and Western Ave and Cutts St why walk up to me and say that to me?

I find it very confusing. I have low functioning Autism (the Rain Man type) and so i have very little understanding of words beyond the basic ones, and i never went to to school, so I never learned maths or sciences, and I only had remedial classes at Southern Maine Community College, because I did not have an education to enroll with regular, I was there taking every reading and writing class they had to learn how to read and write, and also took speaking classes to learn how to talk (i spoke Shetland Scottish language because that was language my grandmother spoke but she died when I was 8 so I only knew that language to speak and write, and I was 37 when I went to college and 42 when I learned English speaking and I still cant speak English good yet), all the other classes I took were art painting and cooking.

So the phrase "You would not make a good teacher" makes no sense to me because it seems to imply that I am trying to be a teacher, but I don't have anything close to the education ti be a teacher, and im not trying to be a teacher. So I don't know why people keep saying this phrase to me and I assume it must have some sort of a slang meaning, but I can't figure out what it could be of why do these people keep saying it to me.

see video below for more information:

update Sept 15, 2026:

I have some slight movement in some my fingers again again after over a decade being paralyzed

you remember how I used to be a professional doll making, pattern designer, and embroiderer, back before I became paralized and before my son was murdered and being the backhoe drove over my house?

all my equipment, sewing machines, ect were all destroyed by the backhoe driving over my house, and I have been quardepelegic for over a decade because of it so could not use my hands to sew or draw or embroider, and so only continued to do my writing of novels since then because I could do that with dragon dictation software,

well, since 2016, I been playing Witcher 3 and don't starve video games on twitch livestream, one hand two fingers, as part of my therapy to regain nerve and muscle use of my fingers, and now after 10 years of that, I have somewhat more movement in my fingers and im thinking maybe I can try to do embroidery and doll making again, but not sure, anyways, now im rebuying all of my sewing and embroidery equipment that the backhoe destroyed when it drove over my house, and hopefully I can use my hand enough to embroider again.

waiting for stuff to arrive in mail, so soon I should find out if ten years of twitch gaming has given me enough muscle strength to use my fingers to embroider again.

update to the previous video, answering viewer question about lack of hospital vs broken spine

Wheelchair Fundraiser... I need to upgrade to a power wheelchair, the manual one just isn't enough anymore. But the power wheelchair is $25k. Yes, twenty five thousand dollars. Wtf? I can get a car for a quarter that price, why are wheelchairs so damned expensive? That's more money then I make in five years, so I need to start a fundraiser for it.

>>I think I might just start charging like $3 or something, considering it might actually attract more people.

But are you sure $3 is enough? That's still an "amature self pubbed book by an author with no self confidence in their work" price range. Readers tend to gage the value of an author's confidence in the quality of the book, by the price the author charges, so yes, high priced self-pubbed books DO sell more then the freebies and cheapies.

If you are talking about short stories, then $2.99 per short is fine.

If you are talking about novels $2.99 is still too low to attract the "normal" ebook readers.

Did you know you can self publish comic on Kindle now? You might want to check that out.

I've found that readers tend to not trust any self-pubbed author who lacks the confidence to price their book competitively. The mind set seems to be "All these ebooks are $7.99 to $12.99, why is this one only $2.99? There must be something wrong with it. Bet it wasn't edited."

many newbie self published authors contact me with similar questions. They'll give me some story of how they were told to have a perma-free book for a "lead in" and then only publish the rest of their books for .99c. Then they say how they did this and can't get sales.

They then ask me how in the heck I can possibly get so many sales when my books are SOOOOOOOOOOOOO expensive.

What are my book prices?

eBooks:

  • Flash Fiction/1,000 word stories = .99c (.35c earnings)
  • Short Stories/up to 5,000 word stories = $1.99 (.69c earnings)
  • Short Stories/up to 10,000 word stories = $2.99 ($2.09 earnings)
  • Novellas/up to 75,000 word stories = $4.99 ($3.49 earnings)
  • Novels/up to 300,000 word stories = $7.99 ($5.59 earnings)

PaperBacks:

  • Short Story Collections (150k words total) = $14.99 ($3.50 earnings)
  • Novella Collections (150k words total) = $14.99 ($3.50 earnings)
  • Novels/up to 300,000 word stories = $14.99 ($3.50 earnings)

I'm kind of living proof that readers are more likely to buy an expensive book then read a free book. And if you look at other self pubbers who get sales, they have similar prices; but you look at the ones who struggle for sales... they are the ones doing the freebie/.99c/$2.99 novels.

The thing is, if the author thinks it's not good enough to even TRY to make a living off it, readers immediately assume there must be something wrong with the book. People who buy eBooks are used to paying $5 for a King short story and $20 for a King novel.

Look at the price range of trade pubbed ebooks in your genre and price match your books to them.

>>however much it takes to get on the New York Times bestseller list.

a book has to sell 1million copies within the first 6 months of publication to be a NYTBestseller.

Most books on that list are all by 3 mega giant publishing houses.

Most of the books on the list, DID NOT sell 1million copies to HUMAN READERS to get on the list.

It is a common book marketing practice for the mega giant publishing houses to order a million copies of their book, to be delivered to a book store warehouse, then buy back those 1 million copies first day of release and simply toss the books is a paper shredder.

If you are not with one of the publishers who does this form of book marketing, you'll never become a NYT Bestseller.

>>When it comes to piracy or libraries, I don't think it makes a difference.

except libraries don't pay bookstore retail prices for books - they pay several hundred dollars for the exact same paperback that everyone else bought for $5 at a bookstore. Same goes for ebooks. Library not only buy the book, but they buy the right to distribute it for free as well. This is why so few self-pubbed books get into libraries...self pubbed authors neglect to get their books listed in the catalogs that sell books to libraries. Legally libraries can't even take a donated copy of a free book the author hand delivered to them either.

>>I'm lucky to get double digit views.

I'm guessing for your OP that you own your own website and it still very new/under a year old? If this is the case, then I think I might know what is wrong and how to fix it.

It sounds like your website has not been indexed by Google Search Engine yet.

Do you own the website (own the domain/.com address) or are you putting them up on some place like Wattpad or Medium or DeviantArt or Tumblr or some other type of site?

I ask because often an issue of views has nothing to do with the writing itself and is instead an issue of SEO.

If you own the url of the site, try changing the titles of each page to something like:

  • Comic Title: Episode 1 Part 3 | Free Web Comic To Read Online!

Then be sure to have that same thing in the description, the meta tags, and the sub-headings.

>>Weirdly enough, random chapters deep into an arc get a hundred reads somehow, but my personal favorites stay under ten.

Pay careful attention to the titles, headings, sub-headings, and meta tags on each of those pages. How are they different?

Chances are that the ones getting a few hundred views have something in the title that is good SEO juice and getting them into Google's search results, while the ones with only 10 views are lacking those things.

Again, try changing the titles and see if that helps.

Also, if you own the domain, then you should have access to the .xml file. If you do, this is VERY important.

It'll look something like:

  • domainname.com/index.xml or
  • domainname.com/site-owner.xml or
  • domainname.com/site-map.xml or
  • domainname.com/rssfeed.xml

something of that nature.

for example mine on my own site looks like this: https://www.eelkat.com/sitemap.xml

This is the single most important thing a website needs for SEO, and it's often the thing neglected by the bulk of webmasters because so few SEO "guru"s ever mention it, as they are too busy trying to sell you keyword lists and email lists..

I've been doing SEO for sites since 2007 and one thing I've learned is you can go without keywords and you can go without email lists, but you CAN NOT go without submitting your .xml file to the Google index. This is an absolute MUSt.

Google CAN NOT find your pages unless one of 2 things happens:

  • some site bigger then your's links back to you
  • you submit your .xml file to the Google index

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!

If you have NOT manually submitted your .xml file to the Google index, then you are NOT in the Google index and you will NOT receive site traffic from Google search engine!

This means you will ONLY be getting traffic from direct clicks on links you shared via Twitter, FaceBook, etc.

If your site us under THREE YEARS OLD Google WILL NOT send search spider bots to find it; ALL sites under 3 years old are BLOCKED by Google UNLESS they manually submitted their .xml file to Google!

Once you have found your site's .xml file, now you need to sign up for Google Analytics AND Google Search Console (2 seperate accounts) and Bing Webmaster Tools. Each of those 3 accounts is going to give you an html/javascript code to add to the header of your site.

Once you have done this, wait about 24 hours for your site traffic to start showing up on each of these 3 dashboards...

now, on each of these dashboards, you'll find a place that says "Submit Site Map", click that link, and paste your .xml file into the box.

Now in each of those 3 dashboards, look for the "Fetch As Google" "Fetch as Bing" ""Fetch & Render" links. On each of those pages, again submit your .xml url.

Now, you've one more step.

On your website, build a new page, and title it something like "Site Map Index". On this page, type the title of EVERY SINGLE PAGE of your website, into a long list. It doesn't matter if your site has 1,000+ pages, this is a MUST, if you want to be indexed by Google. Once you have done this, now turn each of those titles into a link to it's page. (The one I built for my site looks like this, to give you an idea of what it is you should be doing: https://www.eelkat.com/SiteMapIndex.html ) When you get done you will have a long list of links, linking to every page on your site.

Now go to Google Search Console > Crawl > Fetch As Google

Select "Fetch As Google", it'll open a popup asking you which option you want to use. Select the option that says"Request indexing for URL and linked pages"

Submit this list of links.

In most cases, within 48 hours of doing these steps, your site will be added to the Google Index, and spiders will start going out every 3 days to search your site for updates and new pages.

After a week, go to Google Search Console and check your dashboard, to find out how many pages have been indexed. It'll also tell you which pages were NOT indexed and what violations the page is doing to prevent it from being indexed. It'll tell you how to correct the issue, and then provide you with a place to re-submit that page so Google can index it.

Once you are in the index, it'll take about 6 months, before your site will be fully sorted by keywords and such. However, at around 6 months after you submit your .xml and site map link pages to the Google index, you will start to see a dramatic increase in traffic to your site.

You'll go from a few hits a day to hundreds of hits a day. Within a year of submitting these 2 pages to the index, you'll start getting 1,000+ views a day.

If your site is under 3 years old, Google will place "rank blockers" on it, so you will never rank on page 1 of a Google search result. However, once your site is 3 years old, Google removes this and you'll suddenly on the 3 year anniversary of your site, find yourself ranking on page 1 of Google and getting tens of thousands of page views.

Once your site hits 5 years old, and again at 10 years old, you'll get Google rank boosts again, and each time you'll see traffic doubling.

In most cases of a site getting low views, it is nearly always because they did not know about the requirement of manually submitting the .xml page and the link filled site index page to Google.

In most cases, once a site submits those 2 pages to Google, it'll see a dramatic increase in traffic about 6 months later.

Hope that helps.




So, I was over on Reddit, you like I often am, and found this question. And answered it, like I do. However, the answer I initially gave was a simple generic answer. If you want to read my original answer unaltered, simply click on Reddit's embed feature links which Reddit provides for webmasters to be able to post their answers on their websites, while linking back to the original thread on Reddit (if you didn't know Reddit offered and encouraged the use of this feature, look for it in the "share" features underneath every post, comment, and reply on Reddit).

I am answering random questions today about world building, over on Reddit and decided to take my answers from there and expand upon them even further over here. So that's what this page is. Me rambling on about various aspects of world building techniques I use when writing the Quaraun series. The questions I am answering are embedded here. Clicking the link in the embedded question will take you to the original Reddit page where you can see the original answer along with other people's answers. If you wish to comment, you can do so on the Reddit page where a place to do so is provided.

In any case, as with all of my Reddit answers found on my site here, my original post on Reddit is much shorter then the article here.


Crosspost & Embed Features Are Now Live & Out Of Beta! Yay! (I've Been Beta Testing Both For The Last 6 Months Or So Now Everyone Can Use Them! Go Ahead And Share Any Post You Make or Find Here Via Embed and/or Crosspost! Have Fun!) from StorylWritersGroup











While there are around 20k pages on this website, most of them are blocked from search engines, with only around 800 of them available for appearing in Google/Bing/etc search results. The remainder can only be accessed via the various links found throughout this site. This was done deliberately on my part, and I did it because the bulk of the pages on this website are chapters from 138 novels and 423 novellas, so only the first page of each novel and novella indexed by search engines, and the remainder are linked in order, one page at a time, via clicking "next page" at the end of each. So if you are looking for a specific page from a specific novel, Google can't help you.

i just found out there is yet another bizarre rumour going around. where are these wild rumours coming from? who is starting them? and why?

@eelkat

since I've been flooded with hundreds of messages the past two weeks asking if I still own "the world's most haunted car", yes, and here it is, filmed today May 18, 2026… but my son Xavier is dead, i am crippled and given that people are AGAIN showing up calling my Dodge "haunted", calling my friend "an alien", calling me "transgender", and spreading wild defamation slander connecting me to Stephen King, I think I need to start taking down the contact information of every blogger, podcaster, youtuber, and social media account spreading these rumors, and sue every single one of them for CAUSING my car to be cut in half May 10, 2010, for CAUSING the backhoe that drove over my house August 8, 2013, for CAUSING my son's murder November 14, 2013, for CAUSING me to be crippled and in a wheelchair November 14, 2013, and for CONTINUING to CAUSE harassers to show up in person to harass me near daily, STILL now in 2026. EVERYONE telling you my car is haunted, telling you my friend is an alien, calling my car "the goldeneagle", calling my friend "Etiole", or trying to connect me or my car to Stephen King, is lying to you. They crippled me when I was 8 months pregnant, and a woman with a golf club, severed my spine and bashed my baby's head in, I spent 9 years relearning to walk, and the FBI is 13 years into the murder investigation and not yet identified the attacker who crippled me and killed my baby, both violently with a golf club and the FBI believes that it is friends and family of the woman who did it, are the ones who started and spread the rumors saying my car is haunted, saying I'm an alien abductee, saying all kinds of similar bs about aliens, ufos, ghosts, witchcraft, demons, and Stephen King connections, even though I don't believe in ghosts, aliens, ufos, demons, and had never heard of Stephen King before 30k of his fans showed up in my yard trying to find my car! FBI believes the backhoe driver and the murderer are the same person and it is a developer who wanted my land and so started the Stephen King, ghost, and alien rumors all in an attempt to drive me off my land, and when it didn't work they drove a backhoe over my house, and when that didn't work they crippled me and killed my son. Why are they doing this? How do I get them to stop?

Do you know who drove this backhoe over my house at 146 Portland Avenue, Old Orchard Beach, Maine on August 8, 2013? If you have any information, please give it to FBI Agent Andy Drewer at 207–774–9322 of the Portland, Maine FBI office.

My house at 146 Portland Ave, Old Orchard Beach, Maine, July 4, 2013, photo taken because we had just finished building a baby room on the back. vs My house August 8, 2013, when the same group of people (yes group, the golf club woman was not alone when she attacked November 14, 2013, nor was she alone with her second attack July 2016.) who murdered my son on November 14, 2013 at Southern Maine Community College and crippled me July 26, 2016 at scarborough WalMart,... they arrived the first time with a backhoe on August 8, 2013, that they used to drive over my house, during a time of day that I normally was home asleep... I had to work a different shift at the Waffle Cone Pizza Food Truck at George's Parking Lot by Bill's Pizza at the OBB Peir, that day, otherwise, I too would be at the bottom of a landfill, along with my house and everything I owned that was also in the house. I was 5 months pregnant at the time and have been homeless for just under 14 years, homeless ever since....

... which means it is now only a few weeks from the 14th anniversary of my son's murder. I was 8 month pregnant November 14, 2013, and a student ay SMCC, and coming out of the Buglight Lighthouse art studio after art class, when a still unidentifiedwoman wielding a golf club attacked me, severed my spine, while I was 8 months pregnant, triggered early labour, then killed my son minutes after he was born.

While accusing me of being transgender, screaming "transvestite freak" and "look at that thing, that's Ken's son in a dress"... while I was 8 months pregnant.

The backhoe driver returned November 14, 2013, armed with a golf club, used it to break my spine and smash my baby's brains out on the ground

On November 14, 2013, my son was murdered. I was 8 months pregnant, leaving my college classroom, and just getting into my car, when 3 strangers, a man and two women, armed with golf clubs leapt out from behind my car screaming "kill or be killed, kill the transvestite freaks, kill them all before they kill us! look at that thing! That is Ken's son, look at how it's dressed! kill the transvestite freaks! kill or be killed"... while the bald man and the red haired woman chanted this over and over, the blonde woman, lunged with the golf club.

She severed my spine, I am now a quadriplegic, and been paralyzed arms and legs, and in a wheelchair for 13 years now. She broke my hips, my knees, my legs, ruptured most of my discs, and shattered three of my vertebrae so bad that the shards of bone acted like glass and embedded themselves into my spinal column nerve bundle.

The attack also triggered labour.

My son was born in that parking lot, and he lived only a couple of minutes, before the deranged blonde woman, beat his head in and smashed his brains out, with the same golfclub she had just used to sever my spine and leave me crippled for the rest of my life.

Realizing that I was not transgender, and they'd just murdered a baby, the man grabbed the 2 women and forcibly dragged them away to a 4 door white pickup truck, and they left me there to die.

The FBI told me later, that a few weeks before this attack, and transwoman, had murdered a cis woman, in a parking lot, abou 20 miles away from where I was attacked. The FBI, believes that my attackers, had somehow found out I wrote transgender fiction, connecting my real name to my penname, (my father's name is in fact "Ken", and I do have a brother) and believed that I wrote transgender fiction, because I was myself transgender, even though I'm not transgender. The FBI, believes the attackers, thought I was my brother, pretending to be a woman.

The FBI investigation, into my son's murder, has dragged on for 13 years, and still now in 2026, continues on, with the FBI, still not having yet identified my attackers, and only guessing at what their motive was.

Thus we come to 2014, and the full swing change of the series I write. WHY my series, went from just a transman main character living life, to the full blown Mpreg genre series that it now is today.

Before the attack, I had a chance of having a baby. I don't know. And because I'm in America, I'm too old to adopt. You have to be under 45 years old to adopt a baby. That is the law in America. I was informed this, when we tried to adopt, now that my injuries leave me unable to get pregnant a 9th time.

Thus began my obsessively writing, my transman main character, pregnant. Always pregnant now. Every time. Every story. Stories that now fully focus on pregnancy, labour, miscarriages, babies dying, babies living, raising babies... the whole series, since 2014 has devolved into an outright baby obsession.

Meanwhile, reborn baby dolls were suggested to me by my therapist, and have also become a deeply obsessive part of my life. Because 13 years ago my son was murdered minutes after he was born, because a transphobic bigot mistook me for being transgender, I'm STILL in a wheelchair, struggling to relearn to use my arms and legs, now 13 years later, and I'm still DAILY dealing with police officers and FBI agents who while they are trying to find my son's killer, they are also daily reminding me... oh, yeah, my son was murdered, literally ripped out of my belly, by a transphobe. Who still has not been located and walks free to kill again.

I am a legally blind quadriplegic, and low verbal, I have also published 138 novels in the last 48 years. It's not as impossible as people think. The problem being blind and quadriplegic, medically have different meanings then how those two words are used medically.

Fewer than 3% of all blind people see nothing. While 97% people who are classified as fully blind are able to see up to two feet in front of them. Legally blind means I can see more then two feet in front of me but not far enough to see twenty feet in front of me. In my case I can see about eight feet.

Quadriplegic, has varying levels, it means having a damaged nerve bundle in the spinal column causing limited mobility of all 4 limbs, (in my case this was done by a women wielding a golf club, who also beat my 8 month infant's head to pulp on the parking lot tarmak, at the same time she severed my spine with the same golf club; both on November 14, 2013; the FBI investigation into my son's murder and my being crippled has gone on now for 13 years, a few weeks away from 14 years now, and the FBI has still not identified the killer or her motive). Contrary to popular misconception, quadriplegic does NOT mean ZERO movement, it means means limited movement, specifically in means unable to lift arms over head, unable to grip fingers around objects to pick them up, and unable to stand for more then 5 minutes to a time. Because there are so many thousands of nerves in each limb it is actually very rare for there to be 100% no movement, but how much, and to what extent varies by patent depending upon the specific point of injury to the spinal column.

Meaning typing is still possible for over 60% of all quadriplegics.

In my case, it was the lower spine that was severed, cutting off completly my ability to move my right leg, leaving limited feeling in my left leg, and an ability to stand but not walk, with crutches, for the first 9 years. I regained enough nerve growth in my legs by the 9th year to be able to take ten or twelve steps allowing me to get out of bed for the first time since the golf club attack; This in turn lead to me being able to start using a wheelchair, as I was able to sit upright for the first time as well.

Because the shattered vertebrae bone fragments are broken off completly and embedded into the nerve bundle just above my tailbone, doctors were saying I would never walk again, but now at 13 years, I am able to push mu wheelchair like a walker, a distance of almost a thousand steps a day. Though doctors are still doubtful I will ever walk "normally" again, I have proven them wrong, when their said 13 years ago, that I would never walk again at all.

But because of the placement of the damage to my spine, regaining hand use, was always thought possible, it was just a matter of waiting long enough for nerve regrowth, along side daily finger exercises. I was able to continue writing, after becoming quadriplegic, because I still have use of my right thumb, and 2 fore figures of my right hand. And can type 90 words per minute with those 3 fingers.

I however have no wrist strength, elbow strength, or shoulder strength, so I am not able to form a fist, or lift objects, or brush my hair, or my teeth, all thing I have to have my caretaker do. But, those things are not needed for typing. Unfortunately, my pinky and ring fingers are "nerve dead" and drag over the keyboard, and cause horrific spelling errors and typos, which are incredibly frustrating to deal with.

Unfortunately trying to edit errors myself, just makes the errors worse, because those same two fingers drag over the keyboard yet again. Prior to the golf club attack, I rarely had spelling errors; now I got more spelling errors then someone is learning English as second language. Editing is a challenge, that I've had to accept, I simply can not do myself, and I have to hire several editors to help with that.

Low verbal means sounds can still be made, sounds that software programs like Dragon can be trained to recognize and translate, and type into full words. More then half my novels were typed with this method.

I still have a long ways to go before I am anything close to being able to do the things I could do before the golf club woman beat my baby's brains out and shattered my spine. And you know what's more frustrating then how slow mu medical progression has been? The fact that it's been 13 years and the police and FBI are still coming up at dead ends as to who the woman who murdered my baby was, or why she even did it.

My son's 14th birthday is only a few weeks away, but he didn't even get to live long enough to celebrate his 1st birthday, I don't even know why. And I can't wait to regain my ability to walk again, because regaining my ability to walk, means gaining the ability to go outside and start looking for my son's murderer myself instead of sitting at home trapped in a wheelchair waiting for the police and FBI to to find her. So, writing isn't a big priority for me anymore. I only write now, as a way to exercise my hands, in between relearning to walk.

Never let a disability stop you. Plenty of writers, artists, athletes, do not let either blindness, speech impediments, or limited mobility hold then back from perusing their careers.
