“Stories featuring disabled characters that are written by disabled authors themselves are inherently stories of transformation and the new—because they come from people who’ve had to view the world in different ways in order to get by, to survive, to thrive in ways that only we know how.”

~ Amanda Leduc, author of Disfigured: On Fairy Tales, Disability, and Making Space, and The Centaur’s Wife

Nothing Without Us

“I can’t describe how refreshing it is as a disabled person to read about fully fleshed out three-dimensional characters. Not only are we pulled out of our trope-ridden literary history, we are given substance.”
~ Derek Newman-Stille, eight-time Prix Aurora Award winner for Speculating Canada

The Stealth Lovers

“The fiercest, most formidable warrior-lovers in the ’Cosm are back. And the battle has never been so fabulous!”

~ Stephen Graham King, author of The Maverick Heart Cycle series

Life in the ’Cosm

It was an intergalactic joyride of epic proportions. Laugh out loud hilarious, touching, endearing and wonderful don't do it enough justice.

~ Jamieson Wolf, award-winning author of Love and Lemonade

Cait Gordon (she/her) is an autistic, disabled, and queer woman who cares about disabled and neurodivergent representation in fiction, along with a firm belief that space opera should include funny aliens and a heaping amount of cake.

Spoonie Authors Network

Cait founded the Spoonie Authors Network in 2016 as a community initiative where authors who managed disabilities and chronic illness could share their stories. The invitation to contribute now extends to those who are disabled, Deaf, Blind, neurodivergent, and/or folks who manage mental health. In 2019, Canadian author Dianna Gunn joined the "network" by launching the Spoonie Authors Podcast. Learn more...
