Welcome to More Realms…..

You’ve arrived beyond Autistic Realms, which is the space where I share grounded, practical support for families, educators, and those navigating Autistic ways of being.

Here in More Realms, things are looser,
weirder, more speculative. 

This is not a place of conclusions or answers, it’s a place to wander, to feel, to think sideways, expand, explore and be inspired.

To deep dive monotropically into other ways of understanding and experiencing the world.

To neuroqueer, to dwell, and discover more possibilities.


Somewhere in the margins, another realm unfolds……..

More Realms is a space for those who move through spiral time with tangled and textured bodyminds. It is a space where we can explore Deleuzean-inspired neuroqueer, post-humanist, neuro-holographic and ethodivergent ideas together.

I write monotropically through:

Felt  time — spirals, slowness, entanglements.

Liminal embodiment —  perception, sensory knowing, other more-than-human ways of experiencing and perceiving the world.

You’re welcome here, whether you’ve come from Autistic Realms or stumbled in through another liminal space.

There is no map, but there are threads, glimmers, and soft, weird spaces to explore…

    What is a Body without Organs? In this post from my Neuroqueering Deleuze series, I read Deleuze and Guattari’s A Thousand Plateaus through Autistic lived experience: plateaus and rhizomes, the egg, minor gestures, burnout and neuroqueering, and how we might come undone carefully, together.
