Neurodiversity Stories

Life is full of changes, we all know that, right? Although we see this as something very easy to deal with, for others... This is not always the case. Thus begins the story of Serena Marshall, a 12-year-old girl who has to adapt to a new life after moving to a new city. Now forced to deal with a complicated, unfamiliar and unpredictable environment for her, Serena knows that her first year at that new school won't be easy; so she will have to adjust, find her place and, above all, face one of the most difficult and important challenges of her life: Make friends.

Pharma giant Goldenrod has closed every last skatepark in Montreal-and local skater gal Lulu is on the case! During her investigation of the conspiracy she suspects, she quite literally falls down a rabbit hole into a bizarre secret kept by Goldenrod's old nemesis: Sanctuary 17223, a research facility run by the AI doll Alvin, currently trapped in its own reality-breaking simulation technology. After freeing Alvin and accidentally wiping his database, Lulu teams up with him-or rather, becomes the User he is programmed to serve-to uncover the full story. Their first discovery, however, is that Lulu was onto something and is now being accused of a crime she (mostly) didn't commit. Stuck inside the Sanctuary, will she find a way to ethically kiss the sentient object of questionable origin- uh, reclaim her freedom? sanctuary17223.com

As The Blank Slate Collective's influence spreads, the heroes are forced to confront their own weaknesses and the true cost of their powers.

Curious about autism? This resource for writers talks about what autism is and how to write an autistic character. Autism is a lifelong neurodevelopmental disability that affects around 1 in 59 people. Every autistic person is different. Most autistic people typically experience some or all of the common autistic traits, which include developmental delays, difficulty mind-reading, sensory issues, need for routine, stimming, and difficulty understanding and coping with emotions. This resource is intended to be autistic-friendly. This is a space for good-faith learning and positivity. It is OK to have questions and to not know things. People commenting in bad faith will be blocked, and possibly reported. (Please do not try to debate mean people.)

I got late diagnosed at 21. Since I found out I'm autistic I've been researching a lot about it and Autism became my Special Interest. There's still a lot of misinformation, but I also discovered many interesting things people don't know about. So I decided to write to spread more knowledge and acceptance. I'll be writing about the Autism Spectrum and also other subjects that relate to mental health and how autism shapes the way I see the world. And that's the Tea, sis (I prefer to write in english, but all chapters will also be availiable in portuguese in the story "Chá com TEA". Chá means tea in portuguese, TEA being ASD. And, as I love puns, I just couldn't help but unite the two stories this way)

Trigger warnings - there are heavy themes of ICE, violence and discrimination. During one of my seminars at uni I was asked to write a poem about something that makes me angry, and I chose everything that's going on in the world right now (politically). Not only does it make me feel but I hope it personally affects me too. It's a very long, strong and powerfully emotional poem that should tug at any humane person's heart. Every time I read it in my head or allowed I need to take multiple breaths, stutter and often feel the need or do cry. Because this is genuinely how I feel. So if you care about what is going on in the world, especially in the US and UK please give my poem a read I really appreciate it.
