Join Village Books in Bellingham on March 26, 2024, as they welcome three talented contributors of the highly anticipated book, "Soul Jar: Thirty-one Fantastical Tales by Disabled Authors." This extraordinary collection, which has been recognized as one of the Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association's 2023 Buzz Books, challenges the conventional portrayal of disabilities in science fiction and fantasy narratives. In Soul Jar, thirty-one disabled authors weave captivating stories that celebrate the beauty and uniqueness of disabled characters.

Annie Carl, one of the contributors, is not only an author but also an advocate for disabled diversity and positive representation in literature, television, and film. Born with a rare spinal disability and a survivor of Stage IV Non-Hodgkins, Annie's personal experiences inspire her work, such as "My Tropey Life: How Pop Culture Stereotypes Make Disabled Lives Harder" and "Nebula Vibrations." As the editor of Soul Jar, Annie ensures that disabled voices are heard and celebrated.

Lily-Marie Jurich, a Type 1 Diabetic residing in Edmonds, Washington, is another talented author featured in the anthology. With a passion for reading, acting, and writing, Lily-Marie's creativity knows no bounds. Her contributions to Soul Jar, ranging from short stories to poems, demonstrate her remarkable talent and dedication to the craft.

Ellis Bray, a science fiction author and poet from the Pacific Northwest, completes this trio of exceptional contributors. Bray's work delves into the experiences of living with disabilities, both visible and invisible, as well as the lasting effects of childhood trauma. His academic background in Medieval Scandinavian Studies adds depth to his writing, and his love for Norse poetry is evident.

Don't miss this remarkable event at Village Books and Paper Dreams, where you can engage with these inspiring authors and discover the fantastical world of Soul Jar. Tickets for this event range from $5 to $19.58, offering an opportunity to experience the enchantment and insight that this collection offers.
