I genuinely cannot believe we are still seeing things like this in 2026. There is just no excuse for racism, especially around children. My heart hurts for every child who has to grow up seeing this kind of hatred in the world. Let's do better! #StopRacism #ProtectChildren #Humanity #BeKind #2026

Life is definitely life ing right now, but I’m still here. Thank you to Blue Willow Bookshop and Jones Public Library for supporting my work. Talk to you guys soon. Love you. Bye. #TheNeedForGreen #WritingInKrashin #BlueWillowBookshop #AuthorLife #IndieAuthor

Apparently today is Q&A day, so here’s a fun little get to know me video for all the new followers. #WritingInKrashin #AutisticCreator #ActuallyAutistic #AutismAcceptance #AutismAdvocacy #ChildrensBookAuthor #Neurodivergent #BookTok #CozyGaming #AutisticAdult

I saw a video on Instagram today that genuinely broke my heart. Please teach your kids kindness, empathy, and how to treat disabled people with respect. #Autism #ActuallyAutistic #DisabilityAwareness #BeKind #InclusionMatters #TheNeedForGreen #WritingInKrashin

A poem I wrote about masking, identity, and the fear of finally being seen for who you really are. #Poetry #Autism #ActuallyAutistic #Writing #Poem #Masking #Neurodivergent #CreativeWriting #AutisticAdult #WritingCommunity

This is what it feels like when people say “just do it” and you can’t. It’s not about trying harder. It’s about needing support, understanding, and space. #autism #actuallyautistic #neurodivergent #autismparent #inclusion #autismawareness #writinginkrashin #mentalhealth #sensoryneeds

This one feels really special to me. I’m really grateful to be part of this issue of Autism Parenting Magazine. Being part of this means a lot to me. If you’d like to read it, the full issue is available here: members.autismparentingmagazine.com/issue-191-em...

These are just a few questions you can ask while reading The Need for Green to help open up real conversations and create connection. #TheNeedForGreen #WritingInKrashin #ChildrensBooks #Parenting #ReadingTogether #AutismAwareness #Neurodiversity #GentleParenting #Connection #RealConversations

I did it. I finished the Barnes and Noble event. I sold some books, got to meet families, and share The Need for Green in person. They’ll also be keeping a few copies in the store for a little while. I’m really grateful for that. #TheNeedForGreen #AutisticAuthor #AutismAcceptance #ChildrensBooks

Today is my Barnes and Noble event, and I will be there from 2 to 4. I’ll be meeting readers, and sharing The Need for Green. If you’re nearby, you’re welcome to stop by. #barnesandnoble #authorevent #childrensbookauthor #theneedforgreen #houstonauthors #booksigning #storytim

I am autistic, and I’m also a parent to an autistic child. Some things are easy to see, and some things aren’t. This is how I explain it. #actuallyautistic #autismacceptance #neurodivergent #autisticadult #autismawareness

When everyone leaves the house and it’s just me and Bailey… she immediately clocks in as my emotional support supervisor. She follows me everywhere, listens to all my random thoughts, and takes her job very seriously. 🐾 #dogmom #autisticadult #mybuddy #quietmoments #neurodivergent

I have two upcoming in person events for my children’s book The Need for Green. This Saturday I’ll be doing my first Barnes and Noble event from 2 to 4 in the Houston area, and then on May 16th I’ll be at the Jones Public Library from 11 to 2 for an Author Meet and Greet. ❤️❤️❤️

What’s a fun fact about you? #actuallyautistic #autismawarenessmonth #autisticadult #autisticjoy #neurodivergent

This weekend I’ll be at my first Barnes and Noble event. Come say hi if you’re in Houston. #barnesandnoble #authorlife #childrensbooks #bookevent #houstonevents #houston #indieauthor #bookcommunity #supportauthors #autismawarenessmonth #actuallyautistic #writinginkrashin

Just out here climbing to the top like it’s nothing and then flipping around like she didn’t just scare me two seconds ago.💪🏾🤸🏾‍♀️ #autismawarenessmonth #actuallyautistic #autisticchild #autisticjoy #neurodivergent

Just a moment with my girl and her little monkey. These are the moments I hold onto. It’s dark because she never wants the lights on. #autismawarenessmonth #actuallyautistic #autisticmom #momlife #realmoments

She goes by autistic author of The Need for Green. If you feel the energy, you can find my book at writinginkrashin.com #autismawarenessmonth #actuallyautistic #autisticauthor #childrensbookauthor #indieauthor #booktok #kidlit #theNeedForGreen #writinginkrashin #vibes #softenergy #flowstate

Excited to share my book at Barnes and Noble next week. Truly grateful. #WritingInKrashin #TheNeedForGreen #AuthorEvent #BarnesAndNoble #HoustonEvents #Grateful #ChildrensBooks #Neurodiversity #AutismAcceptance #SupportLocalAuthors

This story came from real life, from love, and from lived experience. The Need for Green is more than a book to me, it’s a reflection of my world. writinginkrashin.com #autism #autismawareness #autismacceptance #autismeducation #actuallyautistic #neurodivergent #childrensbook

Advocacy starts with listening, understanding, and making space for each other. This is why I wrote The Need for Green. writinginkrashin.com

I shared my book at TLA, and we ran out. There was still a line, and now this story is going to libraries across Texas. I’m really grateful for this. writinginkrashin.com

These are some of the first sensory boxes for The Need for Green. I packed every single one myself. Each book is signed and put together with intention and care. #TheNeedForGreen #AutisticAuthor #SensoryFriendly #ChildrensBooks #InclusiveBooks #SignedCopy #WritingInKrashin #NeurodivergentVoices

They’re finally here! The first batch of The Need for Green just arrived! Thank you to everyone supporting this story about our sensory journey.🫶🏾 #TheNeedForGreen #UnboxingBooks #AutisticAuthor #SensoryJourney #PictureBookLaunch

This is not just a blog. It is something I lived. Safe spaces are not about comfort. They are about survival. They are about being able to exist in public without fear, without stares, without whispers. writinginkrashin.com/safe-spaces

The Need for Green is a gentle children’s story about sensory comfort, being different, and finding peace in nature. This book came from real life and real love. If it feels like something your family needs, it’s available now and if you think this could help someone, feel free to share it.

This conversation meant a lot to me. Grateful for the space, care, and encouragement in this moment. The full conversation airs tonight. www.instagram.com/reel/DUbIt8h...

As Black History Month begins, I’ve been taking time to reflect with gratitude and intention. #WritingInKrashin #AutisticAuthor #BlackHistoryMonth #Neurodiversity #ChildrensBooks

I’ve been quiet here while working behind the scenes. The Need for Green is now available. A gentle picture book written from lived autistic experience. writinginkrashin.com

I shared a short clip from a recent conversation about what I hope people take away from my work. For those in the autism community, you are not alone. You can listen to the full podcast episode, along with many other conversations on lived autistic experience, at www.autismpersonalcoach.com

I am holding my very first proof copy of The Need for Green and I am feeling all the things. Seeing this story in my hands is surreal. This proof still needs a few tweaks and refinements, but that is part of the process and we are getting it there.
