If you’re raising an autistic child and sometimes feel alone, I share real support and experiences here:

Spiritual well-being isn’t about religion.
It’s about identity.
It’s about belonging.
It’s about helping autistic children understand: There is NOTHING wrong with the way your brain works.

Hi, I'm Steve, a sort of sci-fi author. Currently working on Bit#6 of my GameLit comedy series The Ambivalence Chronicles, a UFO crash novel set in late 80s England, and a true life story of being #autismparents. #Neurodivergence is my writing theme for '26.

"The dominant culture calls it growing up. A rite of passage. A cleansing, even. At a certain point, you're meant to put the soft things away. Box up the plushies, the imaginary friends, the voices that once comforted you when the dark pressed too close. Give them away. Bury them in attic corners. Or throw them out." Jaime Hoerricks, PhD Slowed-Down Love: On Plushies, Loss, and the Consciousness of Matter AUTSIDE.SUBSTACK.COM

"The child's need for repetition, for talismanic touch, for the quiet companionship of a toy that knows their scent and rhythm-these are misread as regression. As weakness. As something to be outgrown." Jaime Hoerricks, PhD Slowed-Down Love: On Plushies, Loss, and the Consciousness of Matter AUTSIDE.SUBSTACK.COM
