Signal-boost the SHIT out of this!

Iiii do not know if I can participate? The post explicitly states (though the submission guidelines, weirdly, don't) a collection of fantasy short stories written by disabled writers about disabled characters, and I don't know where to categorize myself with respect to disability. (Depression, social anxiety disorder, mild asthma. I don't know if any of that makes me a disabled person.) But I know there are people reading me who can participate, and I want to make sure all y'all and y'all's friends know about this in case you would like to participate.

I'd say that the depression and social anxiety disorder are usually enough on their own, especially if you feel like they actively shape your life. I tend to run very high functioning these days, but it doesn't mean my life hasn't been and isn't fashioned around the limits of my body. Different people draw the line in different places, but I'm a firm backer of "Do you feel it significantly affects your life?" as a bar.

Thing to ponder, thanks.
