Thank you so much for having me here. Yeah, wonderful. I'm glad you could make it and we managed to figure out the time change. At last, eventually, yeah. Right. Yeah. So before we get started into my questions, I just want our listeners to know how we met and we met through the Descriptathon of all things. And I just wanted to know what you thought of the overall experience for anyone that's listening that might be considering to do a Descriptathon. Well, the first thing to say is, if you are considering to do it next year, go for it. It was a fabulous, fantastic experience. Not least because I got to meet you, Ann, and we're talking here today. So if nothing else, that was a huge bonus. But the Descriptathon, it was a really good experience. It wasn't anything that I had experienced before. I didn't know what to expect really from it. So it was totally different. I think, you know, trying to work like that in such a big, massive collaborative way with so many people, hats off and huge kudos to the whole team at Descriptathon who managed to corral and manage that big group of people. And I think for so many people to show a passion and an interest in making images accessible to blind and low vision people, I think, you know, it's a it was just there's so many positives from it. It was just really, really good. So if anybody is considering it for next year, definitely go for it. I thought it was fantastic. Yeah, I totally agree. That's why I keep coming back. I think once you do it, you can't stop. It's just it's such an affirming experience for everybody. And you know, and it's not an easy thing either. There's, you know, times where you're like, oh, boy, I got to keep going. There's a lot of frenetic parts that just kind of come together. You don't think it's going to come together. And you say, oh, oh, wow. You know, I don't know if we'll make it to the end. But then you do. It's like, I don't know how it happens, but it happens. I think the management team must be doing so much really, as you say, frenetic stuff in the background, behind the scenes, under the waterline. Because it does. You know, I was exactly the same as you. I was thinking this is chaotic. And then it slowly but surely comes together and you find your feet. You know what it is that you're doing before you know it. Those three days are up and three big full days and they're open. There's really good, solid product to show for it. So yeah, brilliant experience. Yeah, I agree. Wow. OK, so there's a plug for the descriptor that's done. So more serious things, I guess. Could you share with us your vision loss journey and maybe incorporate that into who you are and maybe how you got to be a writer and that kind of. Yeah, from a young age, I was always short sighted. I wore glasses, first of all. But when I was I think I was maybe as young as seven, I started wearing contact lenses because there are these big, heavy glasses that I wore. ...

In his introduction, Michael writes, "I am blind and I'm an alcoholic." There was no cure for the glaucoma causing his blindness. Thanks to a twelve-step program and lots of help from others, he put down the drinks and drugs in 1982. Now, 42 years later, he's put together this heartfelt narrative of the main events of his life. Mike's friendly and open personality draws upon his world view. Listen and see for yourself how his refreshing message of hope and optimism will lighten your step.
