Survived Facebook Live
Hey fellow Mighties! I am so excited to finally get involved in this fabulous community! My first story shoukd be showing up soon where I share a glimpse of what it’s like to be a person with a speech disability running in a local election ...during COVID-19. I wanted to share my exploits for several weeks now but last night helped motivate me to finally finish my draft and hit submit (at 2:30am). I had hosted my third Facebook Live meet & greet and people actually showed up and asked questions this time ...and I managed to respond without anyone bailing during the long pauses as I type my responses in my iPad’s voice app. Yay! I still don’t want to rewatch the video of myself but just knowing I could communicate with potential voters in real time was a great step forward.
