My Only Flaw

Daredevil is fascinating. I mean, he’s weird: he’s a guilt driven, unethical Catholic lawyer whose super-rich Greek assassin-girlfriend keeps dying. But at a core level, he’s a blind guy who can see. He’s disabled, and sometimes it comes up (“Oh no, Foggy, this data is only on a computer, not available in braille, and my e-reader’s broken!”), but most of the time, he’s super-abled. If you were making a New York State volleyball team, you’d pick him 1000 times before you’d call Professor Xavier.

I am a writer with limited capacity to type things on a computer keyboard. Whatever condition I have manifests like carpal tunnel syndrome, and after seven years with it, I’m no closer to a diagnosis or cure.

But I still believe I’m better and funnier than other writers just because they can still hit 90 WPM.

I believe I’m more charming, a better listener, and have a wider base of marketing knowledge.

The main adaptation is that I like working from my house, where there’s a certain amount of quiet, and I can use voice to text. As a web designer for a decade, I see commuting as unnecessary anyway. It’s not like I’m reading you these words in person.

So am I disabled? That’s actually not the right question for my portfolio! The question is, after reading all this, do you think my sentences will generate the revenue your offerings deserve?

If so, email me!
