Hello everyone,
I'm excited that my article on inspiration is now online at the Ragged Edge
web site, which is devoted to disability rights in the United States. In
this short piece, I analyze a few media portrayals of disability inspiration
(that "triumph of the human spirit" stuff), like the stories about David
Helfgott's international piano tour, to make some guesses at what
inspiration actually does for the people who take it from us. I'm pretty
mean. This is something that I've been thinking about for a long time, and
will be writing more about in the future.
I would love any feedback of course. Link is at

Thank you,
John Kelly
