Hi everyone
I am Alex, I am a 26-year-old guy from England. I have got tired of girls being put off by my disability, so it will be nice to meet some that aren't.
I am a freelance writer and have written articles for a number of magazines. I am interested in science, sports, nature, clubbing, movies, music, and all sorts of things really.
Feel free to message me if you want :-)
PS I forgot to put what my disability is. I have a spinal/head injury following a car accident, so I am a quadriplegic. Luckily I'm not paralysed, and I can feel everything and move a bit. I was lucky, it could have been a lot worse.

Thanks Dani, I had heard about devotees before, and I was curious I guess. I just googled devotees and found this site :-)

A very warm welcome from Canada! Seriously, has anyone even heard of this place? All of you boys are Brits and Americans. The few of ya that actually make it to Canada head straight for Ontario. I'm not feeling the love here in Alberta... |

We had a Canadian lecturer once and he taught us about the tar Sands there, I know that is not the best thing about Alberta, but it's the only thing I know unfortunately :-) |

Welcome. Always good to have a fresh perspective. What magazines do u write for. Any American ones? Thanks blue sky! I have written for a magazine called Disability Now and the BBC ouch blog. They have not actually publish them yet and they are going to put them on their website, so not in actual magazine. But they said they are going to publish one article this week. sorry I have not written for any American ones, only British ones. |
