Book in Editing Process

My book of poetry is currently in the editing process and the release date of the book will be announced once the editing process is done. It is a collection from the time of 2015-2016 and 2019 to show the transformation of my writing, and also to highlight important periods of my life. After this book, I will be planning to write an "autie-biography" as Remi Yergeau would put it (AKA an autistic autobiography). This will be a very long process that could honestly take years, but if my first published book has any success, I will be speeding up the process. I also hope to eventually make this a haven for ideas about neurodivergence for possible further publishing of material. I really do hope to create some type of transdisciplinary approach to understanding neurodiversity from my own angle. I am very much influenced by neuroqueering, and would like to expand on the idea from my personal position, and include an expanse of knowledge from sociology, psychology, gender studies,

Compiling a Book

 To say the least, I have given myself quite a few projects to work on at once, including this in itself. I am currently compiling a book of poetry that I have written since 2015. This is going to be taking up a lot of time, so I may not be able to update or get to the points that I am wanting to get to with this blogging project until I am finished with a majority of the book. Keep on the lookout, however, and I will probably be making blog entries sporadically. Keep patient because I hope to make this the basis for future books potentially. 

Introduction

 My name is Lily Maureen O'Nan, and I am currently going to university for my associate of science degree in social science, and then will be moving onto a bachelor's degree in psychology and sociology with a minor in gender studies. I am non-binary transfeminine and autistic and ADHD, and will be using this platform to publish essays as I go through academia until I have a better grasp on coding.  I will be discussing a wide array of topics from disability studies to traditional psychology to psychedelic therapy to Marxism and more. I will also be discussing gender and "neuroqueer" experience, and possibly publishing poetry and art-themed pieces as well. Be on the lookout for updates.
