"Did you swipe your card?"

"Yes, I did."

"Oh, yes. Your order is being processed."

"Alright... Hey, er, what is it with your nose wiggle???"

Me: Need to write this. Want to write this.

My incredibly poor executive function: How do we sit down and write again?

My incredibly poor executive function: You sure about that, bro?

A bit of self-promotion I guess, but after missing blogging, I started a #substack I intend to post to once a week. It will be primarily about my art, writing, and journey to learning to live a more authentic life as an #autistic #chronicallyill person.

Here is the link. It's free.

If you have a substack, share it with me, and I will check yours out. 🙂

Writing is one of my all time favorite hobbies, but there’s simply no way I could do it for a living because I wouldn’t be able to get projects done on time.

There’s real difficulty for me as a mostly-visual thinker and with complex language and communication disorders. But when I am able to get a decent word down, it’s so cathartic.

Writing always has its high and lows, strikes and gutters, with many rejections for every acceptance, and 2022 had all of the above! Thanks to all the editors at Catapult, Electric Literature, Literaryhub, Púca, Phoebe Literary Journal, Crow & Cross Keys, Oranges Journal and Stone of Madness Press for providing a home for my sometimes strange & unusual words 💜
