As a neurodivergent scholar and writer working on autism in picturebooks, I’d love to meet other fellow neurodivergent individuals in the field and hear about your research! To that end, I’m organizing STIM: A Neurodiversity in Children’s Literature Working Group.
To start out, I’m hoping to hold virtual meet-ups and set up an email list to share news about research projects, publications, conferences, etc. We can also discuss how to support each other in academic environments that can often be challenging for those of different neurotypes.
If you’re interested in being a part of the email list and/or the virtual meet-ups, email me at brandi@stu.ca or via this website’s contact form. I’m also happy to answer any questions.
