Anyway, I'm a bit sorry about these kinda miserable posts but I have unfortunately learned the hard way not to trust individuals who are loud about #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek and other things like it. They tend not to actually support people in the ways that are actually most helpful because they can't be loud about the quiet but firm support that is actually most needed.

(Being a good manager is very hard, and I hope people who are managers get proper support and CPD.)

I was remarking yesterday that the worst managers I've ever encountered hid their mediocrity behind effusive support for efforts such as #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek

The best managers I worked for were instead simply excellent and talented managers who cared deeply about the people who worked for them. They intuitively had a neurodiversity affirmative practice as a manager.

Hope this explains some of my very mixed feelings behind certain types of diversity efforts.

This #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek seems like a good time to point out that (per a diagnosis earlier this year) I'm #ActuallyAutistic.

A #WritingCoach (and hey, I am one!) can help #writers who get stuck in their writing journey.

Coaching can include #consultations, #accountability, #WritingExercises, #resources, #editing, and #feedback.

Remember: not every writing coach and writer will work well together and it's important to make sure you've found a good fit.

During #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek I'd also like to say thanks to my brilliant #neurodivergent clients. I love working together and finding new ways forward. ❤️

Neurodiverse teachers are a rare thing and neurodiverse teachers who are vocal about neurodiversity are even rarer. Taking about your disabilities in our society is very taboo and I’m grateful that there are schools out there willing to listen. #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek… https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1635761940931788800

For this year's #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek, I'm dedicating time to learning about divergent neurotypes *other* than the divergence I personally have (autism).

To start, I'm reading "The Dyslexic Advantage" by Drs Brock & Fernette Eide which discusses #dyslexia from a perspective of strengths rather than deficits.

If we wish to advocate for neurodivergent people we must include ALL divergent neurotypes.

This week is Neurodiversity Celebration Week-Types of neurodivergence include ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, and Tourette’s syndrome.

First time supporting #neurodiversitycelebrationweek as I develop my own skills and understanding of #neurodiversity, what it means to me and others. There are zoom events happening all of this week, go get involved if you can!

As a #neurodivergent person who often works with ND #authors, I'm delighted to spend this week learning more during #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek !

Never be afraid to ask for help when you need it. We’re all unique on the spectrum, & we have a lot to offer society, & the more awareness we can raise, the better. @Autism is a blessing, not a burden. Be kind to yourself and others #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek #autismawareness
