I love that you don't let it hinder your creativity that you've obviously always had. I am attending a talk soon on dyslexia and oral storytelling (by the fantastic ShonaLeigh Cumbers), do you use speech-to-text software?

Out of interest do you (or any other writers with dyslexia ever use any of the free add-ons for Word like 'My Study Bar'? http://eduapps.org/?page_id=7 I recommend it alot to the university students with dyslexia who I work with. It's got a dyslexia friendly spell checker and text to speech facility etc. <br /><br />Also, where did you get the graphic of the dyslexic authors names spelling out dyslexia? Would love to use it for dyslexia awareness week (next week in Scotland!).
