The Down Syndrome Superhero Journey

I started writing The Down Syndrome Superhero during the beginning of 2019 and continued for 7 months. The characters seemed to bring themselves to life, with a vivacity that was really inspiring. During this time, our youngest daughter was experiencing some health issues and writing became a great creative outlet.
