ADHD moment

Oops, in my last article I had promised to post the second half right away, and then I forgot. My apologies, I had an ADHD moment there.

Hello to anyone still around reading my work. Thanks for being here and for supporting me. Until this week, I hadn’t published on Medium or Substack in nearly a month. As I mentioned earlier this year, I’ve been upgrading my undergraduate degree in order to pursue a post-graduate education. I’ve been taking Writing and Rhetoric courses, and I am absolutely loving them.

That said, my academic reading and writing keeps me quite busy, so I haven’t had much time to produce my usual content. This article (which is part two of a two-part mini-series) is definitely not about directly neurodiversity and parenting.

However, if you’re interested in learning about the history, philosophies, and theories which attempt to explain why things are the way they are (and I hope you are interested in those things, because they are oh, so important!), then you may enjoy this further exploration of animal rights, capitalism, and hegemony.

I’ve been telling stories my whole life, I just didn’t realize it. I’m a neurodivergent nerd with a pension (and passion) for reading and writing, here you will find a mixture of fiction and non-fiction stories that didn’t quite fit in anywhere, just like me.
