  1. To #blind people with experience with #PowerPoint, I need help! My school wants me to create a #presentation with speaker notes and graphics, and I'm having extreme trouble even getting started. My info text box with my name, school, and date covers everything up, and I can't figure out moving it or how to get to speaker notes. I normally create assignments with #LaTeX, but I kept running into issues making a presentation that way. I'm on #Windows using #NVDA. Disability services made this sound doable and even easy, but so far that doesn't seem to be the case.

  2. I'm very happy to share that on October 6, I’ll be returning to school at Colorado Christian University Online! It’s been a long road of recovery from a medication that nearly killed me, but my mom and I have decided that I’m well enough to go back. My next class is an introduction to the New Testament, which should be really interesting.

    I have a question for other #blind #students or anyone who regularly reads #EPUB books:

    I'm trying to find the most accessible way to read EPUBs on my #Windows PC, since that’s the format my textbooks are usually provided in.

    • What app do you use to read EPUBs on Windows, and why?
    • Are there any other apps you consider essential as a student?
