Hot off the presses ... Stuart Vyse's @SkeptInquirer on the disgraceful enabling by the media supporting the pseudoscience of Facilitated Communication and Woody Brown & book written by his mother Upward Bound. https://t.co/qqzJfXoI2q

@manda_dodge maybe he'll be a published #autistic novelist someday. I've failed miserably myself in that regard. You might have heard about alleged #autistic novelist #woodbybrown and his novel #upwardbound, but I doubt very much he really wrote it (his mother probably wrote it)
I just finished reading #woodybrown's #upwardbound so now I can make further comment. Though I sort of hated to do so, I gave it a one star review on Amazon. The novel involved multiple points of view, scattered about in a haphazard manner. There was no plot, it was all introspections and ruminations of a variety of characters who were involved in the day care home and there was no basic plot whatsoever. Show don't tell is one of the most rudimentary and fundamental rules in fiction writing. It seems strange that someone who allegedly graduated from an MFA program at Columbia University would violate this rule so egregiously. I'm not trying to be mean here, but this is my opinion. I realize others will disagree with me despite this novel getting so much publicity and exposure and bringing attention to #autism.
I'm also skeptical that Woody Brown is genuinely communicating or that a mostly nonverbal #autistic actually wrote this novel. I'm not accusing anyone of anything as I don't know all the facts. But the fact he uses a letterboard and not a voice-activated keyboard and his mother has to be there, reading everything he writes makes it all suspect to me. I think Brown will likely get some scrutiny and the #neurodiversity proponents will fight this tooth and nail (this has already happened in a bit in my original post about the book after I'd read the article in the Guardian).
I realize that some people will think that this is sour grapes on my part because I've been such a failure as an aspiring #autisticnovelist but that's okay, let them think that. The truth is I was really intrigued by the premise and the subject about an autistic character in a novel and I did want to enjoy it, but I didn't. so it goes. I'll try to write a post linking my one star review if and when Amazon publishes it.
@ravencrime It's like an adult Wonder but more perspectives. I do love going into a book not having read the blurb & being totally surprised, I'll finish it tonight #UpwardBound
Finished. Thank you @JonathanCape @PenguinHuddleUK #UpwardBound #WoodyBrown a book that should certainly make you think & perhaps revaluate look forward to seeing what this author does next!

Few programs have had greater impact on America's #youth than #UpwardBound. Spending time with the @_HamptonU Upward Bound Class of #2025 was AWESOME. Seeing so many #students from @AADULLC and @nnschools was an added bonus. I am so proud of these kids. Their accomplishments and their #resilience are truly remarkable. @NNPSYouthDev #Collegebound #enteringtheworkforce
