Title: Difference of Opinion
Creator: Meda Kahn
Length: 5139 words; also has a podcast reading at 37 minutes
Rating: Not rated, likely Teen but not for sexual reasons
Summary: “A romance conducted in asides and ellipses, a love story that never was.” A doomed relationship told in first-person, from the perspective of a developmentally disabled janitor on a space station.
Warnings: Self harm, ableist violence, eugenics
Submitter comments: Heed the warnings, but: disabled sci-fi-horror femslash is femslash. The story is a gut-punch.

So I'm not disabled in any way myself and my friend, who is disabled, are both writing a novel with a character based on her. It's meant to be a social commentary on ableism in our culture. My friend wants me to do most of the writing since she says she ain't too good at storytelling, but can you point me to some stories about disabled characters written by disabled authors? I just want to see how not to fuck up on portrayal.
I’m sure I’m late after not logging into tumblr for years, but I’m a fan of Meda Kahn’s Difference of Opinion
