Wear it. Drink from it. Stick it on something.

Five things, drawn from lines in the book. Printed and shipped on demand from the United States, so nothing sits in a warehouse and nothing goes to landfill.

Every product on this page is described in words, not just pictures. What it looks like, what it feels like in your hands, and whether you can feel the design or not. That shouldn't be remarkable on a shop run by a blind author, but it is, so here it is.

T-shirts · $25

Three lines worth wearing

Gildan 5000 heavy cotton — a thick, substantial jersey, not a thin fashion tee. Crew neck with a ribbed collar, taped shoulder seams, straight body cut. Charcoal, black or navy, sizes S through 5XL. Same price at every size; there is no big-size tax here.

How the print feels. Direct-to-garment, so the ink is absorbed into the fibres rather than layered on top. You'll feel almost no difference between the printed area and the bare fabric — no plastic panel, no stiff patch you can find with a fingertip.

  • A dark t-shirt printed across the chest in large heavy white capitals on two lines: BRAVE BY CHOICE. BLIND BY CHANCE. Beneath it, two short white rules run either side of a small ring with an electric-blue inner circle and a white centre, and NO SIGHT REQUIRED sits below in small widely spaced capitals.

    Brave By Choice

    “Brave by choice. Blind by chance.”

    A line about who gets to hand out the word brave. Being blind was chance — that part wasn't a decision. What you did afterward is the part you earned.

  • A dark t-shirt printed across the chest in large heavy white capitals on two lines: WE'RE THE POWER USERS. Beneath it, two short white rules run either side of a small ring with an electric-blue inner circle and a white centre, and NO SIGHT REQUIRED sits below in small widely spaced capitals.

    We're The Power Users

    “Blind people aren't a niche use case. We're the power users.”

    Nobody stress-tests this technology harder than we do. AI reads the mail, the menus, the whiteboard photo somebody snapped in a meeting — and blind users find every place it breaks first.

  • A dark t-shirt printed across the chest in large heavy white capitals on two lines: CAPABLE PAYS THE BILLS. Beneath it, two short white rules run either side of a small ring with an electric-blue inner circle and a white centre, and NO SIGHT REQUIRED sits below in small widely spaced capitals.

    Capable Pays The Bills

    “‘Inspiring’ is nice. Capable pays the bills.”

    A shot at inspiration porn, worn on the chest. Admiration doesn't make rent; being good at the work does. Hire us for what we do, not for how it looks.

A mug and a sticker

  • A white ceramic mug with a coloured handle and matching inner glaze, printed the whole way around in deep navy blue that brightens to electric cobalt. Large white capitals read REST IS NOT QUITTING, with the line Even screen readers pause between sentences beneath it, then a small silver ring with a bright centre, and NO SIGHT REQUIRED in small widely spaced capitals.

    Rest Is Not Quitting mug

    “Rest is not quitting. Even screen readers pause between sentences.”

    What it looks like. A white 11oz ceramic mug with a coloured handle and matching inner glaze, printed the whole way around in deep navy that brightens to electric cobalt, with faint diagonal streaks of light running through it. The quote appears twice, on opposite sides of the handle, so it faces outward whichever hand holds it. Nine handle colours.

    What it feels like. Smooth glossy glaze all over. The design is sublimated into the glaze rather than printed on top, so there's no raised edge — you won't feel the lettering. Dishwasher and microwave safe.

  • A rounded-square vinyl sticker in deep navy blue that brightens toward electric cobalt in the lower middle, with a thin silver-white line just inside the edge. A small ring with a bright white centre sits at the top, then BRAVE BY CHOICE. BLIND BY CHANCE. in large heavy white capitals across two lines, and NO SIGHT REQUIRED beneath in small widely spaced pale-grey capitals.

    Brave By Choice sticker

    “Brave by choice. Blind by chance.”

    What it looks like. A rounded square in deep navy that brightens toward electric cobalt, with a thin silver line just inside the edge, a small lens ring at the top, and the line in heavy white capitals. Cut to the rounded-square shape — no white rectangle around it.

    What it feels like. Kiss-cut vinyl on a paper backing: the sticker is cut through but the backing isn't, so you can find the edge with a fingernail and peel it cleanly. Smooth, slightly glossy, flat — the lettering can't be felt. Waterproof. Four sizes, 2 to 6 inches.

How this works

Made when you order. Nothing is pre-printed. Your item is produced in the United States after you buy it and shipped to you directly, which is why there's no clearance rail and nothing ends up in landfill.

Nothing here is braille. Print-on-demand can't make readable braille dots — I looked into it properly, and the suppliers don't exist at this scale. Everything here is smooth — the ink sits in the fabric or under the glaze rather than on top of it, so there is nothing to find with a fingertip. If that ever changes I'll say so here.

What it supports. Buying a mug or a shirt keeps this work going: the book stays cheap and stays available in accessible formats, and anyone who bought it and can't read it still gets a free ePub or audiobook, no questions asked.
