We are editing a book of original monologues that meaningfully explore disability for Smith & Kraus and are accepting submissions through April 1. The featured character does not need to be disabled, nor must disability be the central topic of the piece, provided disability is engaged thoughtfully and substantially. We are particularly interested in informed works that reflect the diversity of disabled experience across tone, form, and perspective—including, but not limited to, comedic, dramatic, experimental, and nontraditional monologues.

That’s why the younger generation has createda secret variety show featuring singing, dancing, original music, comedy sketches, and the finest black market items available this side of what’s left of the Rio Grande.
