Neurodiversity in Literature
Recently, neurodiversity is a term that has gained popularity as more people begin to understand and embrace the wide spectrum of neurotypes found in today’s world. It’s a concept that’s just beginning to be explored through literature. One thing is for sure, it can have a powerful impact on readers. By encouraging the accurate representation of neurodiverse characters and embracing the benefits of understanding these differences, authors can use their work to positively influence and advocate for the neurodiverse community. Readers can become more aware of the biases and stereotypes surrounding neurodiversity. Ultimately, I hope to encourage readers to think more deeply about neurodiversity in literature and embrace its strengths.

Sunflowers Are My Favorite
We’re driving down the road just me and you like we always do. Did. You keep looking at me but don’t ever say a word. We pass the little gas station in Hamburg with yellow pumps all rusted and the most expensive gas in the whole state. You’re the one driving but you keep staring at me. I’m holding the tool of chaos, an instrument of death, one that defeated my soul. I’ve never been diabetic. It’s just what I said at Rite Aid to get the necessary evil from behind the pharmacy desk.
