I am a poet and have CP. and have just recently had three of my poems published in Filling The Void: a selection of humanist and atheist poems, edited by Jonathan MS Pearce, which is on amazon kindle, nook and kobo and will be in Waterstones soon.. One of my poems in the book is called Disability and talks about how Stephen Hawking has changed disabled people's lives, another one is about Hawking's origin theories, called The Universe Came From Nothing, and my other poem is A Woman Of Today and is about living as a cross-dressing woman in today's society as well as in the past.
It is hard for disabled people to get poetry published, but Filling The Void is not edited by a disabled person nor is it in any way disability themed or oriented, but it is just a normal and everyday selection of humanist and atheist poems, very much against god. Enjoy!

thanks, it's a dream! When Waterstones first opened in my city, I was about 10, my heart set on being sold there. So I'm one happy person now.
