You may have heard this one before - or maybe not! Either way, it's well worth a listen. In one of our most popular episodes we sat down to chat with Kay Kerr about her book 'Love & Autism' which, given the timing (a week after Valentine's Day) seemed like a good reason to do an encore.   Original Episode Description: In this episode, Jacinta and Lachlan interview Kay Kerr about her new book Love & Autism. Love & Autism presents an uplifting celebration of neurodivergent love, the search for it and a deeper look into the lives of autistic Australians. We chat to Kay about where the idea came from, the interview and drafting process, autistic affirmation and joy, and what she thinks lies ahead for the next generation of autistics.    About our guest Kay Kerr is an autistic author and journalist from the Sunshine Coast, Queensland. Her debut novel Please Don’t Hug Me (2020) was shortlisted for Book of the Year for Older Children at the Australian Book Industry Awards in 2021, and listed as a ‘Notable Book’ by the Children’s Book Council of Australia. Her second novel, Social Queue, was released with Text Publishing in October 2021. Kay’s freelance writing has appeared in The Guardian, SBS Voices, Daily Life, Broadsheet, and Peppermint Magazine, amongst others. She writes about autistic representation, disability, parenting, pop culture, gardening, and feelings. Kay's new book Love & Autism is out now.    Representations & resources Kay's websitePlease Don’t Hug MeSocial QueueLove & AutismThe OvershareClem Bastow's Late BloomerChloe Hayden's Different, Not LessTim Chan's & Sarah Chan's Back From the BrinkAnna Whateley (Peta Lyre's Rating Normal)Jen Wilde (This Is the Way the World Ends, Queens of Geek, Going Off Script and The Brightsiders)Helen Hoang (The Kiss Quotient, The Bride Test and The Heart Principle)Kate Foster (The Bravest Word, Paws, Harriet Hound, The Unlikely Heroes Club and All the Small Wonderful Things)We’re Not Broken by Eric Garcia.
