Disability Blog Carnival #22 is up NOW!

Jodi at Reimer Reason has assembled the latest edition, with twenty-two recent posts on the subject of resilience. This edition has its own logo, left: a spider whose web ends in the word "resilience," with "Disability Blog Carnival" across the bottom. For other metaphors and meditations on surprising strength, bending not breaking, beauty, daring, and perseverance, go to the carnival.

Next edition is due up on September 27, at Pedestrian Hostile. I'll get the theme for you soon... (UPDATE: PH says it's "Simply the Best," and invites riffs on the supercrip and related phenomena...hmmm!). Entries are due Monday the 24th; you can use the blogcarnival.com form, or leave comments here, there, wherever, to make a submission (even just putting the phrase "disability blog carnival" in your post is often enough to catch our attention).

And after that, the big first anniversary edition #24 will be here, at DS,TU on October 11. I'm setting the theme for that one as "Milestones," which seems appropriate, no? Reaching them, setting them, dreading them, marking them, celebrating them--should be plenty of possibilities there. If you've got a story about hosting or participating in the Carnival in any way, that's also most welcome.

Thanks Penny! The next issue's theme is "Simply the Best." Your responses to this phrase may range anywhere from "whatever the hell that means!" to exploring the highs and lows of the Super- Crip Shuffle. I'm interested in everything from public swagger and glory to intimate portraits of personal folly. Of course, if you're really all that, or think you are, then by all means- bring it on!!!

You must be one of the most talented writers I've seen. Nicely done. I really mean that.
