In this episode of the Unbound Writer’s Club, Nicola has a rich conversation with author Lindsey Elms. It’s a different type of chat this week: Lindsey answers questions about autism and neurodiversity that members of the Unbound writing community sent in. Alongside that, they discuss Lindsey’s new book – Guided by Autism: A companion for late-diagnosed autistic women – her second to be published with the Unbound Press. It’s out now!
