In my access rider I requested questions ahead of time so I can type my responses so they are ready to paste into my text-to-speech app. I also send a copy to the host so the ASL interpreters and captioners have the spelling of specific terms and names. This was my way to create an accessible environment for myself, the audience, and for the event organizers. It requires a lot of labor, planning, and forethought on my part as it is much easier to speak for an hour versus preparing 20+ pages of text for a conversation.
Never ever did I think my access needs would be used to have me modify my remarks which would never happen at a live event unless they cut off my microphone or pulled me off the stage.
