ABOUT
Hi I’m Ally, a writer of rambles. I am a PhD student researching autistic experiences of grief and loss. This is just a space for me to ramble away about my studies, my neurodivergence, and my thoughts and feelings beyond all of that: I just need my own space to write. There will be academic stuff, personal stuff, poetry, maybe even some fiction too, these are just my ADHD-fuelled autistic rambles which will come and go in frequency, and all opinions expressed here are my own.
I have also launched Practical Neurodiversityand I am currently writing two books: one on autistic ways of being and communicating and the other on the concept of nothingness… these will be long-term projects that get there when they get there.
