Any chance you could start with an education component? I think most of us don't really know the nuances of a blind developer's workflow, especially which tooling breaks down where and if there is anything that is infeasible.

What would this look like?(no pun intended) Like a web site that documents accessibility issues for common web sites and software? Or a guide that walks through a typical development process for a blind dev?
Something like the latter. I think just a few blog posts would be very helpful.
I will suggest you start a blog somewhere and, initially, just kvetch about things that you find bothersome. If you can get any kind of feedback at all, that can help you figure out what your value position is. You only need one person really engaging you to make a big difference in your understanding of what other people most need from you.

The posts do not necessarily have to be long.

I think that's a great idea. I have no idea what development is like for a blind person, it would be very interesting to learn.
