Brail?

[starreyes]

Ok, I was going to write to Stevie Wonder, and I knew that he was blind, but I completely blanked out and forgot. I still really want to write him. Any ideas?

I could learn brail, I mean just like look up each letter and figure out how to do it.

I could write the letter and ask if someone would read it to him.


What else do you think would work?

hiya thats a very intersting point. i suppose you could just write a letter to him and hopefully someone will read him it, cos he cant expect all fans to learn brail i am sure that he will have somebody reading his mail to him as he must get quite alot as hes an amazing artist. so good luk and let us know what you have decided to do!!

These are jst my thoughts!!

Thanks kaz!

I was thinking maybe I could do something like look up the alphabet online, and then thake a piece of trancparency paper, like the kind they use on overheads in school and using a saftey pin or something to very carefully do it. I don't know if it would work very well, but it's the only thing I've been able to think of so far other than hoping someone will read it to him.

We've done this is school before, and it worked ok, but I don't know if he would have any trouble reading it.

If anyone else has any better ideas let me know please!

Someone reads him the letters. People get the autographs ( his thumb prints) without the brail.

Ok, thanks for the info! That's pretty cool, I never knew people did that.

It still might be cool for him to get a letter he could read himself instead of having to be read to so I might still do it and include 2 copies of the letter, one in brail if I can figure it out, and one written. That way if I got something wrong they would be able to tell him what I meant.
