    Your Creative Brain Has Two Jobs – Stop Making It Do Both at Once

    Last week, I had one of those days when my creative brain needed one of those intersection traffic cops. (You’ve seen those cool cops, right? They’ve got the cool whistle, and they look like they’re conducting a symphony.) Nothing was actually wrong. In fact, I had too many GOOD things happening…and it was short-circuiting my...

    How to Use Scrivener (Without Anxiety)

    When I tell writers how much I love using Scrivener to write my novels, I often get some version of “I bought it, but I’ve never used it because it’s so complicated/confusing/frustrating.” If that sounds familiar, this is the post for you. Scrivener is a word-processing tool designed specifically for writers of book-length projects. It...

    Ever thought about what silence means to #autistic people? It's not just an absence of words, it's a form of communication. It's also a test.
    But for neurotypicals silence is just a big ugly wall that needs to be demolished brick by brick and by any means possible.

    Everyday Acts of Care as Resistance in Our Communities

    Resistance encompasses diverse actions beyond physical presence, such as mutual aid and community care, which are crucial forms of support. These involve sharing resources, checking on neighbors, and behind-the-scenes organization, often led by disabled and neurodivergent individuals. Helping others is a vital form of resistance that emphasizes sustainability and connection within communities.

    Gentle Research Strategies for Neurodivergent Writers

    Research doesn't have to be overwhelming, especially for neurodivergent and disabled writers facing challenges like executive dysfunction. By embracing personalized strategies such as manageable microsteps, checklists, and visual aids, individuals can create sustainable workflows. Remember, progress over perfection is key; take breaks and honor your unique process.

    Energy Budgeting and The Good Thing Principle

    The world feels overwhelming, impacting our mental and physical well-being, especially for those with chronic challenges.

    You don’t need to “feel like a writer” to write. Writing is a skill you can develop through practice, revision, and finishing work. It's not a personality trait you’re born with. Confidence? That comes later.

    You don’t have to flatten your voice to be found online. SEO and originality are not opposites. Writing clearly, humanly, and in your own voice is how readers and search engines connect.

    Finding your people online doesn’t mean branding yourself into something shiny and fake. Real connection starts when you show up as you are — and let the right folks recognize you.

    Bootstraps, Billionaires, and Bullshit: Why the “Welfare Queen” Myth Needs to Die

    The "welfare queen" myth perpetuates harmful stereotypes about those on assistance, primarily affecting women of color. In truth, corporate entities, not individuals, exploit the system. Poverty is systemic, exacerbated by inadequate wages and rising costs. To create meaningful change, support, equity, and proper policies must take precedence over individual blame.

    Why Textbook Productivity Advice Fails Disabled and Neurodivergent Creators

    Mainstream productivity advice often overlooks the unique needs of disabled and neurodivergent creators, assuming stable energy and executive function. This leads to ineffective methods that can cause burnout and frustration. Instead, embracing flexibility, sensory awareness, and non-linear workflows can support sustainable creativity, allowing individuals to thrive authentically and meaningfully.
