Wow! I just found you through our mutual friend Alex Elle. I thought right away, I want to get his book. I hope I can get my sons to read it. Two of my three, young-adult, black sons are also on the autism spectrum. They are all unique in how autism shows up in their lives and what cormorbidities come with it. Now that I know you are also autistic, I am even more hopeful that they will read your book. Off to buy it now!

This was a wonderful read. Thank you for your vulnerability.

I love that quote from that song. God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called. So much TRUTH. He's called us as we are. If our God can use a Donkey to speak to Ballam, certainly he can use us to do more.

Be blessed today, Michell!

Anger has been my greatest teacher. Deeply unpleasant to be confronted with that part of ourselves and yet so galvanizing at the same time. I feel the familiar heat, the questioning and the release in this piece. Thank you for sharing!

I started to say, " this is the best thing you've ever written" but that is a judgement. I find it speaks to me, and I find it authentic (like sanded down under the rust REAL).

This writing, perspective, and quote were all very helpful for me today. Thank you for your work.

Yes!! What people say *can’t* hurt us unless, somewhere, maybe very deep down, we are secretly agreeing. This is beautiful. 🙏
