271: Blind Authors: Fiona Scott-Barrett, Mark Hardie, Jill Fry and James Thurber

This week, we’re focussing on blind authors: Fiona Scott-Barrett charts the journey of her book ‘The Exit Facility’ from first concept to fully accessible print and audiobook. 84-year-old debut author Jill Fry describes  what life was like for her as a low-vision child in her memoir ‘Born Too Soon’. Blind crime writer Mark Hardie shares some of the tricks of his trade. I dust off a gem written by a man who lost his sight when his brother shot him in the eye with an arrow! And we return to Fiona Scott-Barrett for the Books of Your Life.
