Accessibility Statement

www.isabeldelrio.org is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability. We aim to adhere as closely as possible to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.0, Level AA) published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible to users with disabilities. Conformance with these guidelines will help make the web more user-friendly to everyone. Although www.isabeldelrio.org strives to adhere to the guidelines and standards for accessibility, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website and we are currently working to achieve this. Due to the dynamic nature of the website, minor issues may occasionally occur as it is updated regularly. We are continually seeking out solutions thatwill bring all areas of the site up to the same level of overall web accessibility.

Disclaimer
This website includes several of Isabel's published stories under the tabs 'Fiction & Memoir', dialogues under 'Dialogue-Driven Fiction' , and poems under 'Poetry' , as well as audio and video files under 'Listen and Watch'. With the exception of my autobiographical memoir, all my stories and poems are entirely works of fiction. Any similarity between the characters depicted in my work and real people can only be the result of coincidence, accident, or human error. If anyone sees themselves portrayed in some way in one of my stories or can somehow identify with one of my characters, it will make me very happy to learn that what I have written can be comparable to the real and the tangible, and thus, I will thank the reader for making such generous correlations.
