I am beyond excited to share that I have written something for @redmoongang debut book ‘Red Moon Gang: an inclusive guide to periods’ 🩸 I’m thrilled to have written about my experiences as a disabled person, as our voices often go unheard in these conversations ✨ this is by far the most detailed and inclusive guide to periods I have ever read and I’m incredibly proud to have played a tiny part in it! @redmoongang has poured her heart and soul into this book and it really shows! Go pre-order your copy now! #RedMoonGang #Book #DebutBook #PublishedAuthor #NewBook #Inclusive #Accessible #Periods #Disabled #Disability #Author #Bookstagram #BooksOfInstagram #NonFictionBooks 
A month ago I posted that I’d started crocheting again and I’d made one bee. Well, I’ve now made close to 20 bees, a few dinosaurs, some hats and scarves and even a lobster! And, I’m opening an Etsy shop! I’m working on getting business cards and packaging sorted but hopefully by the end of the month I’ll have a link to share with you all! 🧶🧶🧶 #crochet #crocheting #crochetbee #giantbee #lobster #amigurumi #amigurumicrochet #amigurumibee #smallbusiness #disabledcreator #disabledartist #supportsmallbusiness #supportsmall 
Today marks 3 years since I received my life changing powerchair ♿️ For obvious reasons there isn’t much to write about from this past year but I am still beyond grateful for my powerchair. Not a day goes by where I don’t think about how life changing it’s been for me, and how incredible it was that so many friends, family and strangers came together to improve my life ✨ I hope this next year will have more adventures in store, now I have my adapted vehicle I truly will be unstoppable! #QuantumRehabUK #QuantumRehab #LifeAtiLevel #Powerchair #Wheelchair #WheelchairUser #WheelchairLife #Disabled #DisabledAndCute #BabeWithAMobilityAid #Disability #DisabilityAwareness #Marfan #MarfanSyndrome #DisabledInfluencer 
{AD} I’m really excited that we’re into the next stage of the #IAmNumber17 rare condition campaign now, and it’s my turn to speak about my experience! It also happens to be Marfan Syndrome awareness month right now too so this falls perfectly and you can expect to see lots of content from me about it, starting with today’s piece about the unpredictability of having a rare condition. I found out recently that I’ll be having heart surgery this year and so I’ve been getting my head around the idea of adapting to a new normal again, which is a common occurrence when you have a rare condition, you never quite know what life will throw at you!

How are you getting through lockdown 3.0? Well, I’ve started crocheting again! 🧶 Up until the weekend I’d only ever made granny squares, hats and scarves but I wanted to try making a plushie bee for @iridescentjemma and it actually went quite well! In fact I think I may exclusively crochet plushies now 😂🐝 #Crochet #CrochetersOfInstagram #CrochetLove #CrochetBee #CrochetPlush #CrochetPlushie #Crafting #CraftersOfInstagram #Bee #Bees #BeePlushie #BeePlush #CrochetInspiration 
MY TOP 10 BOOKS OF 2020 // As we wave goodbye to 2020 today I’ve looked back on my favourite books of the year 📚 I went into the year wanting to read 1 book a month but in total I ended up reading 50, all because I found the genres that I really really loved! I’m setting my goal quite high at 75 books for 2021 but I think it will be a breeze! 📖 you can find the link to the post in my bio 🌟 What books have you loved reading this year? #Book #Books #TopBooks #TopBooksOf2020 #WhatImReading #Reading #BookWorm #Bookstagram #MargaretAtwood #TimPeake #Space #HandmaidsTale #Author

Well, what a whirlwind 24 hours it’s been! I can’t quite believe that I can now look out of my window and see my car 😱 A blog post has just gone live on my blog talking more about the process and the car itself for anyone interested, you can find the link in my bio! 🚙 I also can’t thank you all enough for all of the amazing messages and comments, it blows my mind that so many people are interested in my life! #Disabled #DisabledAndCute #DisabiedAndProud #Disability #Wheelchair #WheelchairUser #Powerchair #PowerchairUser #VWCaddy #AdaptedCar #AccessibleCar #WheelchairAccessibleVehicle #Volkswagen #Motability #MotabilityScheme

I am so excited to share it all with you! The independence this will give me is truly indescribable 😭 #WheelchairAccessibleCar #WheelchairAccessibleVehicle #WAV #WheelchairAccessible #Car #VW #Volkswagen #VolkswagenCaddy #AdaptedCar #Disabled #Disability #WheelchairUser #Wheelchair #Powerchair #Independence 
I honestly don’t know what I’d do without my @bundlebeanltd in Winter! Don’t forget you can still get 10% off their wheelchair range with the code ‘SHONALOUISE10’ 🌟 {this isn’t at all an AD in anyway, I just love BundleBean and they kindly gave me a discount code for you all!} #Wheelchair #WheelchairUser #WheelchairCosy #Powerchair #PowerchairUser #Disabled #Disability #Accessibility #DisabledBlogger #DisabledBloggers #DisabledInfluencers 
It will never not be surreal seeing my words printed! Really excited to have an article in the Dec/Jan issue of @posabilitymagazine ✍🏻 I’ve wanted to talk about this topic for a while as the narrative on disability is often that it’s the worst thing that could happen to a person, but for me I wouldn’t have my career if I wasn’t disabled. All of my achievements in life can be linked back to my disability in one way or another. Disability for me isn’t devastating, it’s helped me see what I really want to do in life! I am beyond happy to be ending 2020 being able to say that freelance writing and photography is my job and I largely owe that to my disability 👏🏻 #PosabilityMagazine #Magazine #FreelanceWriter #Writer #DisabledWriter #Disabled #Disability #Achievement #AchieveYourGoals #Monday #MondayMotivation #WritersOfInstagram #WritersCommunity #DisabledBlogger #DisabledBloggers #DisabledInfluencer
