Well, he doesn't have a blog yet, and he thinks I'm tacky for having an online Amazon wishlist. He also terms my URL as "wonderfully narcissistic." But hey, I'm still very proud of my friend Lee for being published in The New Mobility. As he explains it, he is a "quad," or quadriplegic, and I remember hearing his tales of the creatures that came crawling from the woodworks to "heal" him when he was first injured. Severe injury does seem to attract the quacks and the con men. The funny thing is, the guy in that illustration looks like him, too.
He's already considering a freelance web design career; if I could only get him to start a blog as well. No, it doesn't need to be about his disability, although, as you can see from the story linked above, his insights on that topic are compelling. He's always been a great writer and storyteller, though, and the boy needs to get online daily, as far as I'm concerned.
