I’m so glad you enjoyed it! The topic of disability representation in media has always kind of been in the back of my mind, and within the last year or two I’ve been writing about it more or less all the time. It’s always an achievement to see someone disabled succeed in an area where we’re more likely to be demonized or ignored. I’ve written about this same kind of idea in movies like The Shape of Water, as well. While the actress is also not disabled, her character is strong and well-rounded, and fully formed in a way I rarely get to see.
