This moving piece of new writing explores the autistic experience through a female lens, inspired by writer Allison Davies’ own diagnosis of autism.

Elsa doesn’t know why she’s never quite fit in. Perhaps it’s just the way she’s made? She’s quirky, kind, clever and funny, but school was always a nightmare, and romance was a mystery, until now…

When Elsa meets Carmen the real journey begins: to find out who she is, and why there’s an octopus living inside her head.

This is one woman’s journey of self-discovery: a celebration of the joy that comes when we live as we truly are.
