Monday 14th October to Sunday 20th October 2013. Beyond Words The theme for this year’s Dyslexia Awareness Week is Beyond Words. The aim of the week is to debunk the myth that dyslexia is just a difficulty with reading and spelling. We want to highlight the other difficulties dyslexic people face such as poor short term memory, maths difficulties, poor organisational skills but also the strengths that it can bring!

A story of Genesis Trouble. I'm Genesis Trouble. But the thing is, until my 18th birthday, I was anything but that. Trouble. Before all of this, you could have assumed that I was anything except trouble, but not anymore. And yes, my last name is Trouble. When people hear my name, they just automatically assume that I, of all people, happen to be trouble. If they know me, I'm the goody two shoes, the nerd, things like that. I love things like Lord Of The Rings, Sherlock Holmes, and I'm in many fandoms. See? Right there. Instant nerd qualifications. I have a few friends, but not popular at all. I'm probably boring you. Let me just say this, I've met so many people, gotten into so much trouble, seen the supernatural, and dare I say it, loved? I am Genesis Trouble. And from day one, I have begun to believe that I am the beginning of a whole lot of trouble. {cover credit: BigBeautifulMess}
