_Special People Magazine_ is a magazine for the
handicapped that is starting because of a perception that too
many magazines for the handicapped read like medical journals or
service only a specific group of handicapped people. _Special
People Magazine_ is meant to appeal to handicapped people of all
descriptions (from amputees, to the blind, to diabetics); and it
will focus on the stories handicapped people have to tell, what
handicapped people think would improve their condition and
outstanding accomplishments and achievements by handicapped
people. It is hoped that this magazine will offer pleasure to
its readership and, possibly, serve as a voice for the
handicapped to the rest of the world.
_Special People Magazine_ is non-profit and it will be
sent to anyone who is interested, handicapped or not, free of
charge. At this time, the magazine is in need of expanding its
list of subscribers so be sure and send your requests for
subscription to chris@graham.uucp or Chris Graham ON 1: 223/228.
Chris never has much of an opportunity to read usenet news so
uucp capable people should send all replies to chris@graham.uucp
(...!uunet!mnetor!lsuc!graham!chris).
When you send in your subscription request, be sure to
specify what your particular condition is to help the magazine
best serve its readership. And also be sure to include your
preference between an electronic version or a printed version,
or a braille version, as well as the relevant address.
The magazine is also in need of articles so mail them to
the same address also. Articles written by the handicapped
themselves are *especially* welcome.
