Hannah (She/her) is a 29 year old Australian, and a proud Gemini. She is an avid reader of LGBTQ romance novels (‘Red White and Royal Blue’, ‘The Charm Offensive’, and ‘Delilah Green doesn’t care’ being some of her favourites), and a hobby seamstress. 

She is a vintage fashion enthusiast, loving clothing from the 1930’s to the 1960’s, while being incredibly grateful to be living in modern times. She describes her personal style as “Spooky Housewife”, wearing Halloween prints all year round, and dressed as though she is going to tea with Morticia Addams and Lily Munster. 

 

Hannah identifies as a lesbian, though has been proudly openly queer since she was 14, and is a vicious supporter of Bisexual Visibility. She was fortunate enough to head the Pride Network for the Pacific region of an international Commercial Real Estate company for two years, and is still deeply proud of her contributions to policies and culture changes during her time in the role. 

 

Hannah’s diagnosis journey started at 21, when she suddenly started suffering from chronic migraines, and she has since gotten her ADHD diagnosis. She has learned in recent years that she has in fact been hypermobile for the majority of her life, which has now led to her using numerous mobility aids depending on her pain levels/activities. 

 

She now resides in a small coastal town with her family, to give her body the opportunity to heal from ADHD burnout, and have the energy required to enjoy her life. She hopes one day to return to Sydney, but failing that, to make a difference wherever she settles.

Meg (she/her) is a 28 year old magical meat skeleton who would prefer to be a red-tailed hawk. She is on a life-long healing journey to learn how to function her sparkly bag of human bones while existing with Bipolar, PTSD, Scoliosis, and Functional Neurological Disorder. Her mantra is “I will control what I can today, because I choose to, regardless.” 

 

Meg lives in a cozy apartment on the coast of Southern Maine, USA with her incredibly supportive wife and their pack of beloved critters: Otis the Jack Russell, and kitties lil cowboy Redwood & princess Aurora. She likes to spend her free time birdwatching, going on adventures with her wife (and high school sweetheart) Devyn, playing accessibility-friendly songs on Just Dance, nerding out about history, or swimming in the frigid Atlantic Ocean any chance she gets.  

 

Meg studied Fashion Styling and Editorial in San Francisco, CA.  Meg has many years of experience working with disability non-profit organizations, grant writing, and creating disability resources. Currently she is doing graphic design for Wishbone Words Magazine, a publication featuring art from disabled and chronically ill artists.

 

Meg’s own disability journey began when she was diagnosed with Bipolar at age 14, and became even more intense after a car accident at age 18. It took her 10 long years to receive the FND diagnosis, and she lives with significant chronic pain, among other symptoms. 

 

Meg is a proudly queer, disabled, and female entrepreneur. Meg’s goals include raising Nigerian dwarf pygmy goats & escaping into the forest to live in a fairy house with a mushroom cap roof. 

Noelle Thomas (she/her) is a queer, dynamically-disabled creator from the greater Philadelphia area. She lives with Gastroparesis, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) to name a few.

 

Noelle is currently the Managing Editor for Wishbone Words Magazine. Frequently writing, editing, crafting, and creating content about mental and physical chronic conditions, she can be found online under the name Nowhalle.

 

She enjoys space (both outer and personal), reading, and drinking tea. She can most likely be found at home with her cat or at the zoo petting goats.

Ronan (They/Them) is a 25 year old American with a chronically online personality. They are primarily known for video game related content, but can occasionally be found doing all sorts of experimental videography on different subject matters. Art in general is their passion and preferred form of communication.

 

They currently live in rural Georgia with their immediate family members. When not living the reclusive lifestyle playing video games all day they can be found enjoying the outdoors, volunteering at local Girl Scout troops, and touring museums.

 

Ronan's story of diagnosis began when they were little with a chronic and life changing form of IBS. Since then they have been further diagnosed with clinical depression, severe general anxiety, idiopathic intracranial hypertension, dysautonomia, and many more chronic conditions. Their goal in life is to bring visibility to the disabled and showcase the unwavering support networks found in this minority community.

 

Oh, fun extra fact, they're proudly non-binary and queer. Ronan didn't know where to fit that in, but felt it was important. Writing bios is hard, isn't it?
