Within A Million Suns, Kristin Beale learns how to move from the
darkness of her disability, into the sunlight of her new
circumstance. Kristin was in an accident in 2005 that left her in a
wheelchair. That same accident changed her life - for the better. A
Million Suns is the story of her embracing her disability;
navigating the world, both socially and logistically; and trying to
make the best of a "bad" situation. A Million Suns recounts
Kristin's effort to embrace her difference and discover a happiness
she never, ever expected.

Kristin was thrown into a disability at the age of 14, and every
day since then has been a struggle to overcome it. She has fought
through the unavoidable physical stresses of her condition for over
a decade and, even more, the heavy psychological burdens that
follow closely behind. Greater Things is a raw perspective on
everything from how people react differently to her situation, to
learning how to navigate in and through an inaccessible world, to
just trying to make the best of a crummy situation.

Date Me is a collection of comics that tells stories of dating in a
wheelchair, social situations sculpted by people's response to a
wheelchair, and the struggle of trying to fit in from a different
perspective. Dating is hard enough as an able-bodied person. Throw
in the variable of a wheelchair and the "hard" becomes "almost not
worth it." Kristin Beale shares stories of her crazy family, the
unique and often lousy ways people interact with her because of her
disability, and her often failed attempts at dating in a wheelchair
with a strained, but ongoing determination not to give up.
Relatable for many people who have dated in the 21st century, Date
Me offers a different perspective from a wheelchair user and how to
interact with them. With a few extra indiscriminate stories thrown
in, Kristin's stories keep readers entertained as she reveals the
struggles and triumphs of living in a wheelchair in today's world.
