I started renovating our new house with a strict plan. Then all sorts of shit went wrong.

Rigid plans, especially for accessibility, often fail because you can't fully know the problem until you start.

I’d rather stay nimble! You don’t know what you don’t know.

#ProjectPlanning #WebAccessibility

I've got a "don't forget to" list for shipping accessible websites.

It covers everything from heading structure and alt text to keyboard navigation, screen readers and colour contrast.

This helps me make sure everyone can use my site.

Workshops need action plans to be effective.

I use "The three ones" exercise to quickly define who does what by when. Participants suggest tasks for one day, one week, one month, then take them on.

It's great for clear next steps!

I lost 20kg by taking small consistent steps.

This approach also works for web accessibility: set a vision, break it down, prioritise, keep moving, learn, celebrate and involve everyone. Often, small consistent efforts beat big sporadic pushes.

Someone asked about the hardest part of my job.

It's not the tech or the WCAG or the standards. It's the daily grind. Pushing through when recommendations are ignored, explaining things repeatedly and feeling minimal progress.

That's what's truly tough for me.

#Accessibility

"We'll normalize this mediocrity" and "Turn it into best practice."

Maybe the best thing you'll read today. Certainly the best I've read all week.

After all these years, I still feel I have much to learn about #accessibility.

Feeling like a novice again is damn special.

I know my family is one of many in this situation. I have to do what I can to help my family change it. Thanks for any leads.

I would appreciate your help even if it's just a like.

“I worry I'll say the wrong thing or offend someone.”

But we can’t keep quiet about accessibility and disability.

Didn't want to do this, but facing challenging times.

If you've been thinking about bringing me on as a speaker, trainer, or consultant in communications, marketing, and accessibility ... this is the time to do it.

Open to opportunities. Thanks!

The time has come! Check out Part 2 of the video @jennissary.bsky.social and I did with Molly Burke where we have her play #TheLastOfUs for the very first time! You do not want to miss this one!

Product teams are usually made up people with two different mindsets.

Some people are set on avoiding web accessibility problems. Others want to solve problems and see #accessibility as an exciting challenge.

You need both.

Hiya! I’m a self employed & disabled consultant in accessibility and software.

If you’d like to support my work 🩷

I’m open for contracts:

I also have a tip jar:

Both of these help me continue creating free content! And pay my bills 😁

Someone asked me earlier this week what the hardest part of my job was.

Laws? Standards? WCAG? Stakeholder management? The technicals?

No.

The hardest part in web #accessibility isn't knowing what to do. It's doing it every day, even when you don't feel like it.

When will you start maximising your WCAG ROI by leveraging semantic alt attributes in your ARIA compliance microservices while optimising focus-visible contrast ratio for maximum VoiceOver engagement metrics?

Please don’t be like Gary!

When you have to ship and have a million things competing for your attention, who has time to think of accessibility?!

You don't need more time. You need more focus. Work will just expand to fill up your time.
