Posted: April 4, 2023 Filed under: Accessibility | Tags: Accessibility, Patty's Worlds 3 Comments
Hi, at Patty’s Worlds, Patty Fletcher answers the questions, What is Accessible technology? and how can I make my materials accessible to those who are visually challenged, or totally blind?
Here she is with more.
Earlier last month, I was approached by a fellow author with the question, “How can I educate the authors I work with concerning accessible tech and how to make their writing available for readers who are blind, visually impaired, or who have some other print disability?”

Hi, again, Kaye and all. This is another important post to read and keep handy for future reference.
If you check out a screen reader demo, odds are you’ll hear the difference between a photo which reads Unlabeled Graphic verses a photo which reads as my Writer’s Grapevine Magazine cover will read this month.
Thanks a bunch, to Kaye and all for taking the time to learn about these important matters.
More articles will be forthcoming according to reader interest, of which I hope there is much.
Thanks, and have a great day.
