Personal Fonts for those with Poor Hand Dexterity or Disabilities

What a great idea!

If you have lost the ability to handwrite due to hand dexterity issues, injury or illness, Corien can help you regain that personal touch again, when typing letters on your computer, by using your existing handwriting samples to create a font based on your personal style.

This is great for anyone who sufferers from a Spinal Cord injury (such as Quadriplegia), Amputee, Multiple Sclerosis, Arthritis, Motor Neurone Disease, Parkinson's Disease and many other disabilities, which make it difficult or impossible to handwrite.

Spinal Injury Novel Forum

Two highly autobiographical novels by Stephen F. Caldwell about his life years after a serious spinal cord injury.

Arthur, a C-6, -7 quadriplegic, was told he would walk in 90 days. He thought it unlikely, but many of his friends believed and he tried to keep an open mind. THE HEALING is the story.

LOVE NOTE is a serialization of the slightly fictionalized stand-alone sequel to THE HEALING. It is a story many will think includes too many drugs and too much sex but is also a story of extraordinary feeling.
