My book is about growing up in Tampa without having any idea that I was highly neurodivergent. Since I didn’t qualify for any labels, I flew under the radar at Gorrie Elementary, Wilson Middle School & H.B. Plant High School. No one noticed that my misaligned eyes were making it impossible for me to catch a ball, my prosopagnosia (faceblindness) was making it tough to make friends, and my poor visual memory left me constantly lost. I was afraid to learn to drive, and yet I scammed me way into getting a drivers’ license. I discovered all these crazy things about myself on the cusp of my 40th birthday — and I wrote a book about it. My book is also about a revolution in the sciences, where serious researchers are beginning to investigate subjective experience, objectively!
Come to my Tampa book party, with special guest Jeff Patterson of WFLA, News Channel 8. It’ll be so much fun!
My dad, former Tampa City Councilman John Dingfelder, will be there, too. He’s a main character in my book. And an all-around great dad.
