So who wrote the note???
Riss: ...
Riss: Why am I here, Neri? Why did you kill me just to bring me back with you here? What do you want from me?
Riss: Do you want me to remember what I was doing? Because, I don't and I still don't know what went wrong, nor what I was doing! If you think some hospitality will make me forget what you did, you've got another thing coming, lass!
???: ...
???: You always were the one to jump to conclusions
Riss: Wait... what? It can't be- you were-

My Triumphant Return to Tumblr
(Cue everyone following me looking up, thinking: “Huh? You left?” Well, sort of, and not intentionally).
Some of you have probably noticed posts have been sparse here the past few years. Here’s the story, in a timeline:
2018-2020:
--Started training as an SLP (speech/language therapist). Had a quixotic dream of acting as a bridge-builder, advocate, and translator between people with communication disabilities and others in their lives.
-- Took a break to go on leave and do some soul searching. Realized I really wanted to be a writer, not an SLP.
-- Wanting something to show for my work, returned to finish masters degree.
2020-2022:
-- Lived in an apartment self-isolating from COVID, doing career research and taking a break from my old interests. While engaging in fandom, I meet some of the dearest friends of my life, and helped one of them edit a novel. I fell into a leadership role in an internet community and flailed around, and generally learned lot about how to participate in a community.
-- In the background, my interests in not-quite-cognitive-neuroscience matters were developing -- including trauma, mental health, addiction, and volitional action. However, I couldn’t see how they fit together yet.
-- Struggled with frustration at how little knowing about one’s own disabilities translated to actually managing them.
2022
-- Missed disability writing, saw ways it connects with my new interests and life circumstances, and decided to start blogging again.
Now, here we are!
Future entries might* include some of the following:
-- What it’s like to have passionate/intense/”special” interests...and to lose them overnight.
-- Thoughts on books I’m currently reading: You Are Not Your Brain by Jeffrey Schwartz (famous expert on neuroplasticity and OCD), Smart but Stuck by Myrna Orenstein (not the more famous book by the same title), and A Radical Guide for Women with Attention Deficit Disorder by Sari Solden.
-- Ways that determining and accessing the support you need as a masters student with ADHD can be challenging, even when the people in your program want you to succeed.
-- The most challenging parts of self-isolation from COVID for me: less being stuck in a small space, rarely seeing people in person, and more the lack of external structure.
-- Transitioning careers as a neurodivergent person.
*I make no promises. What appears here will be determined by a combination of what interests you all and what is feasible for my brain to produce.
For those of you still reading, how have you been? What interests you these days? What’s been happening on Tumblr these past few years? What’s new in your disability communities?

Ah Sun-flower! weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the Sun:
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the travellers journey is done.
Where the Youth pined away with desire,
And the pale Virgin shrouded in snow:
Arise from their graves and aspire,
Where my Sun-flower wishes to go.
