Writing & Resources

Writing & Resources

Writing is one of the ways I share what I have learned from the Autistic community, from families and from more than twenty years of teaching. Here you will find my book chapters, journal articles, guest blogs, e-books and free resources on monotropism, Autistic burnout, profound and multiple learning disabilities and neuro-affirming practice. Much of it was co-created, and I am so grateful to everyone I have written alongside.


📖 Books and Book Chapters

  • Embracing Monotropism and Flow, chapter co-written with Fergus Murray in It Takes All Kinds of Minds: Fostering Neurodivergent Thriving at School (Routledge), edited by Rachael Davis, Claire O’Neill and Sue Fletcher-Watson (December 2025)
  • Cavendish Space, entry co-written with Ryan Boren (Stimpunks), in Victoria Navin’s Sensory Spaces: An A-Z of Immersive and Creative Environments to Support Sensory Integration (Routledge, 2025)

Commission writing or resources

I write guest blogs, chapters, e-books, guidance and accessible companion resources, and I am always happy to co-write with other neurodivergent people. As a neurodivergent person I also need support to access work, so my personal assistant may help with arrangements. Get in touch.
