Subject: Blind Characters
Author: FVLBKH   (guest, 108.49.230.34)

So, I'm writing a story which follows the high school careers of some kids at a boarding school. Two of the characters, whose tentative names are Bruce and David, are blind.


Bruce has been completely blind since birth and David went blind and is only legally blind.

I really want their blindness to be believable and accurate, so I was wondering if anyone had any advice on what to research, know some irl blind people, or have created any blind characters they're especially proud of. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you! :)
