Writing

Now featured on the front page at Kuro5hin is my new essay:

If you or anyone you know is affected by this mental illness or by schizoaffective disorder - which I have - then I encourage you to print some hardcopies of this article to pass around.

I've been passing out hardcopies to the staff and members at the local chapter of the Canadian Mental Health Association, and it's just been lighting up the place.

There's a follow-up discussion at the above link, but a more printer-friendly version is the copy at my own website, which has simpler markup and a print-specific CSS stylesheet that enables really nice hardcopies.

There are a couple nits that still need to be corrected in the kuro5hin version, but the one at my website has the Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivs 2.5 license. Once I'm able to get K5's editors to make the corrections for me K5's version will be CC-licensed too.

Membership at Kuro5hin is free, and it's become a great community to be part of once again now that they've clamped down on the trolls.
