[games_access] IGDA newsletter is looking for articles on Game Accessibility!

[hinn at illinois.edu]

Hey there everyone!

For those who meant to try and submit something for the January issue of the IGDA newsletter/magazine on Game Accessibility, there's another chance to get your GA news out to the IGDA! I just talked to the editor and she'd like to include them in the March issue on Positive Impact Gaming. 

I'd love to see things like a summary of the Barcelona Conference, the Florida Global Game Jam accessibility winner and the AbleGamers Game of the Year in there! Below is the information about the March issue and the deadlines and who to contact with your ideas.

these are mediocre times and people are 
losing hope. it's hard for many people 
to believe that there are extraordinary 
things inside themselves, as well as 
others. i hope you can keep an open 
mind.
