Hello! Looking forward to exploring Mastodon. I'm a #neurodiverse writer and home-educator, into drinking lovely teas, exploring the coast, folk, history and storytelling.
I write for children and adults - books and scripts, and love stories in all their forms.
Hoping to make a positive difference where I can :)

I'm autistic.
My friend (MF) wanted to send a happy memory to an estranged other. (EO)
I was abused at age 11
Theraapy has revealed that it made me hypervigilant to social injustice which I guess includes things like manipulation.
