Shadab, you're mulling a nice idea
I Hope, whatever you venture wil prove to be paragon piece on living
with blindness.
further, a good writing is understood an outcome of varicious reading
and practical experience.
moreover, you can produce much self-contented piece if you instead of
capturing the likes of people primarily, you come up with your own
understanding of your story 'living with blindness.
and believe me, soonner than later, people will recognise your work
with throbing heart.
There is an old saying: "writing for one's pleasure brings out the
best out of a writer."
you may always disagree.
Good luck,.

Hai Shadab:
It's nice to know about your enthusiasm to write about blindness.
Unfortunately, few people have really tried describing what it is to
live or experience life with blindness. As UNCRPD clearly says, this
is the way you experience life, where the sense of touch and the
feelings of your heart takes the place of seeing. A lot of my sighted
colleagues and friends have told me that not seeing is sometimes a
good thing. This is not a patronising statement, but a practical one
wherein the person beside you is glad that you are not seeing the
gory, heart renching things like an accident or a murder as they do.
They can shut their eyes, but most people don't realise they have such
an option. Well, I gave this example as to how experiences of seeing
and feeling things can be different. The best thing to read is R. K.
Narayan's profile of veteran VI journalist Ved Mehta. Actually Mehta
profiled Narayan for the New Yorker magazine. So impressed was Narayan
that he returned the favour by profiling Mehta for the same magazine I
think. Pl do a google search on Ved Mehta. I heard his memoir is also
said to be inspiring. Do a lot of reading before you venture to write.
We have a funny saying about doctors in Tamil: a true doctor is one
who had killed a thousand people... Same way if you kill a thousand
characters and create a truely memorable one, you are a good writer.
So all the best for your venture. Go ahead and write your epic.

Subramani

Hello,
1) Beat the person has topped the school/ college/ X board/ XII board.
2) He is the Highest scorer of any competitive exam.
3) holds officer rank in his office.
4) Participated in any sports on State/ National/ International level.
Frankly speaking, the points that I mentioned are on practical grounds.
The
fact is all the work that a VI does is from his 4 senses only, and his
work
is equivalent to that of the sighted people.
For more information, you can read success stories of VI persons.
The books are available at NAB and AICB.
