She Just Wants to Blog for a Year

Glenda Watson Hyatt was has a disability but is not her disability. She doesn't want special consideration, she just wants to be like anyone else.

And she wants others with handicapping conditions to know that they are just like anyone else too. That's why she entered the contest at blog for a year. She explains

"Since I was young, I have dreamt of having a regular column (then a newspaper column, now a blogging job) in which I share my experiences as a person living with a disability to show that I am more than my cerebral palsy; to show that I am capable of having a career, running a business, being married and owning a home, that I am interested in politics, global warming, and, heaven forbid, even sex, and that I have “normal” every day problems too.

"My reason for wanting to write this kind of column/blog is to alleviate people’s fears of those with disabilities in a non-confrontational and humorous way. Being paid to blog about this would be a dream come true and would fulfill what I believe is my life’s purpose"

I'd like to help Glenda achieve her dream. You can vote once a day until the contest ends at the end of the year. It's one time that "Vote early and vote often" is actually the thing I'd ask you to do.
