My fellow bloggers, as I am often asked which sessions I will be attending at conferences, so that my fellow attendees can plan their own schedules accordingly when they want to be in two places at once, here is the schedule I am planning on following. It is subject to change based on both changes in the conference schedule itself and my own ability to attend any given session.

And while I always appreciate the thanks and the compliments I get for my liveblogging from both readers and speakers alike, I cannot begin to describe how much these posts still miss out on from being there in person. Type-A Atlanta 2015 is sold out, but if you can get yourself to either Type-A East or Type-A West in 2016, you won’t regret it.
Thanks again to Kelby Carr and the Type-A Parent team for selecting me to be a 2015 Type-A Parent Ambassador, which includes both financial and non-financial compensation. Suffice to say, I’ve supported Type-A since 2009 without compensation, and would still be liveblogging had I not been chosen as an ambassador!
That’s me: Christina Gleason. I’m a writer, editor, and disability advocate. I'm a multiply disabled autistic lady doing my best in this world built for abled people. I’m a geek for grammar, fantasy, and casual gaming. I hate vegetables. I cannot reliably speak, so I’ll happily conduct business over email or messaging instead.
