I have recently launched a site called "Too Polite To Ask" which is intended to help people better understand one another by presenting first-person accounts of life experiences. I think there is a lot of curiosity as to what it feels like to be in a wheelchair and I am wondering if someone here may be interested in participating in a short phone interview (5-7 minutes) to tell their story.

I contacted Apparelyzed' webmaster who suggested that I post to this forum. If you are interested, please send me a note at eappleby at toopolite dot com and I'll get back to you to schedule the call. For reference, here are a couple other interviews that have been conducted recently:

toopolite.com/what-it-feels-like-to-speak-with-a-stutter/86/
