“I hit a thousand shows. Then I strove to hit fifteen hundred. I'd do three nightmare sets in a row, honing a new bit, then crush in front of a hot audience. I wasn't used to seeing effort translate to improvement. As a kid, no matter how many hours I spent at the kitchen table with my mom, reading and writing never got easier.
As a model, I lifted weights and ate mashed potatoes for breakfast and stayed bone-skinny. Stand-up was the first thing that the more I put into it, the more I got out. My entire life was a tightly coiled spring. Stand-up released the tension, and I sprang forward with decades of repressed energy. I could feel myself getting mighty.”
Phil Hanley, Spellbound: My Life as a Dyslexic Wordsmith

“However, it's not fair that the only options we currently have for children like me is to either have their parents give over their lives to homeschooling, or to suffer in an environment where every ounce of them is riduculed, ripped apart or forced to changed.”
Chloé Hayden, Different, Not Less: A Neurodivergent's Guide to Embracing Your True Self and Finding Your Happily Ever After
