Comic Diary created about and in collaboration with my child who has Autism. At first just because my daughter is funny and I wanted to share her with friends and family. But during Covid, especially in lock down, going through puberty with an Autistic tween has been a lot for both of us and also my husband to process. It's a diary, it's a connection to loved ones we can't be with, it's a connection to other people on the spectrum & special needs families that we see them.
