Hey @richardgreene2 I think @walterkirn is reading your biography of Greene, possibly? See the really excellent podcast @mtaibbi America This Week (7/7/25 episode) when the fellows talk Waugh in the literary backstop of the eipisode.

A and I have created all kinds of adventures in which the longstanding boss of her stuffy army, Minnie Mouse, is wary of the new recruit (Sookie) because Sookie doesn't "seem like a team player," "doesn't like to play with the others," and "just wants to be all by herself.".

New Spirit Stuffy for What_to_feel,_how_to_feel (Palimpsest Press, 2025). Meet Sookiemonster! Autistic people, say it with me: WE DON'T WANT TO SMILE MORE! Aria and I clutched Sookie from the jaws of Claw City in Oakville.

Holy frig! From Quill and Quire review: "Over the years, Neilson has carved out an important niche in the world of CanLit. This book is a worthy addition to his body of work."

My book about neurofatherhood, published on Father's Day! If you have: lived a traumatic childhood, and are now a father; or been raised by a neurodivergent father; or are non-neurotypical; or are raising a non-neurotypical son, is for you!.

(2) not because it was poor, but because it fit into the collection as a lynchpin and couldn't exist as an isolate. Several of the essays are this way, they load-bear together, individual members of a disabled community that is the book itself. Weird, I know! Thank you D.
