Writer-in-Residence Event: Disability in Fiction with John Wiswell and Ross Showalter

After I was awarded my Town Hall Seattle residency, I was asked to curate two events to showcase my work and discuss aspects of my work and the communities I’m in that motivate me. For me, the first thing I wanted to do was an event about disability in fiction and invite two writers who inspire me: John Wiswell and Ross Showalter. On April 26, we met on the virtual Town Hall Seattle stage to share our fiction and discuss writing disability in fiction.

Below is our video, a transcript of our discussion, and a bibliography of works mentioned in the discussion.
