Tracee Garner is an incredibly talented author, and she "writes about diverse characters who face adversity but through everything, learn to move past barriers, hurdles and villains both real and imagined." She believes "that in a few years her generation of people with disabilities will be the most gainfully employed group than ever before. She believes that more persons with disabilities could be employed and productive if employers would simply let go of the dilapidated thinking, personal bias, and limiting thoughts that cause them to focus on the person’s disability rather than their Ability. She is working hard to change that."
