    My name is rosweed. My real name is Shawn. I am the producer of a national radio talk based in New York City. I am self taught and dyslexic so it takes me a long time to get web design stuff right. Plus, my lousy memeory doesn't help. But I enjoy piddling around, trying to learn new things on my own.

    I too have dyslexia.

    Welcome to FWT Shawn,

    I too have dyslexia, but still I managed to start my own company and create this forum I was not sure I would be able to do this because my native language isn't English still after falling 2 times in creating my own forum I now managed to do it.

    Having dyslexia is a gift.
    Here is a quote from dyslexia.com

    Did you know Elbert Einstein, Thomas Edison, Keanu Reeves, Jay Leno, Picasso, Muhammad Ali, John F. Kennedy, Winston Churchill, Thomas Jefferson, Henry Ford, Tom Cruise and more see here all have dyslexia.

    [font=&quot]All these people were or are very talented people.
    This proofs that dyslexia is a true gift.

    I would recommend you to read The Gift of Dyslexia it's a great book and it will tell you how to use dyslexia in a positive way rather than a negative way.     [/font]
