Author: Rae Elise

I'm Elise, an autistic advocate, writer, and perpetual overthinker. Writing is my therapy and my rebellion. I live in a cozy corner of the world with a collection of fidget toys and a love for midnight snacks. Sharing my story is my way of connecting with others and breaking down stereotypes, all while staying tucked safely behind my pseudonym. I hope you’ll find comfort, humor, and maybe a little bit of yourself in these pages. - Elise R. (Pen name: Elise Rae)

Notes from the void of my unreliable being... about the meaning and purpose of reality and shit like that. Also some poetry, but whatever. Ruthless autism advocate who can sometimes mask as neurotypical... until my next meltdown but we won't talk about that.
