The Neurodiversiverse: Alien Encounters is out today!

Thinking Ink Press presents an empowering anthology of neurodiverse stories, poetry, and art for sci-fi lovers.

Would neurodiversity be an advantage when encountering aliens? Let’s find out.

Heartbroken starships.

Human-sized hamster balls.

Superpowers unleashed by anxiety.

A planet covered in mathematical fidgets.

And we finally learn why aliens abduct cows.

Featuring stories, poems and art from Tobias S. Buckell, M.D. Cooper, Ada Hoffmann, Jody Lynn Nye, Cat Rambo, and almost forty other contributors, The Neurodiversiverse is edited by Anthony Francis and Liza Olmsted, and explores themes of autism, anxiety, synesthesia, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, avoidant attachment disorder, dissociative identity disorder, and more.

My short story “The Space Between Stitches”, featuring alien teleportation and human crochet, is part of this anthology. Atthis Arts friends Clara Ward and Stewart C. Baker also each have a story in this book.

The Neurodiversiverse: Alien Encounters is available as ebook and paperback:

Meanwhile, it’s time for me to pack the last things for Worldcon! I’ll be travelling to Glasgow by train tomorrow—as Bilbo would say, I’m going on an adventure! For those who want to hear me talk on panels, my schedule can be found here.

Enjoy the Neurodiversiverse! And to those of you who are going to Worldcon: see you soon!
