"Rather than framing ADHD as something to fix or push past, Attention Seeker looks at what it means to live with a brain that doesn't always follow expected patterns, especially when creativity, relationships, and work are all part of the equation. The book approaches neurodivergence as something to understand and live alongside, not a problem to solve. For many queer readers, this subject hits close to home."

A neurodivergent comedian known to queer audiences uses confessional, vulnerable, self-aware, occasionally raunchy comedy to depict ADHD with humor and real-life honesty rather than stigma. The approach frames neurodivergence as something to understand and live alongside, not a problem to solve. Research suggests roughly 15-20% of the population is neurodivergent, about 7-8% identifies as LGBTQ+, and overlap may be 30-70%, yet directly relevant stories remain rare. A community reading begins February 15 with sign-up through February 14 and membership options for participants.
