On returning home yesterday evening I was excited to open a package from the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) and find it contained my book, โ€œDalliance; A Collection Of Poetry And Proseโ€ in Braille. Although โ€œDallianceโ€ is available as an ebook with text to speech enabled, allowing visually impaired people to read it, I wanted my own copy in Braille and requested that RNIB transcribe โ€œDallianceโ€. It is a wonderful feeling to hold a braille edition of โ€œDallianceโ€ and know that the book will be made available for other Braille readers to borrow.

RNIB advise that โ€œDallianceโ€ will be added to the library catalogue, (http://www.rnib.org.uk/services-we-offer-reading-services-rnib-national-library-service/library-catalogue). This does not appear to have happened yet. It is however early days and I am sure the book will soon be available for RNIB library members to access.

(โ€Dalliance; A Collection Of Poetry And Proseโ€ can be found on Amazonโ€ฆ

    1. Well deserved, Kevin…well deserved! I am going to look into finding out if we can make a copy for the libraries in the U.S. In St. Louis we have Missouri School for the Blind and I will look into finding out about converting one for the library. Thanks for the great information and how wonderful that you open up your world to others as well ๐Ÿ™‚

      1. Thank you so much Patrick. RNIB did the transcription using an electronic version of Dalliance. If the school are in a position to transcribe Dalliance into braille I would, of course be very happy to provide an electronic version to assist the process. Thanks again. Kevin
