The more popular self-publishing becomes, the more books there are on the market about\u00a0Tourette Syndrome<\/strong>\u00a0<\/a>and similar neurological disorders, particularly memoirs. That\u2019s why I was surprised when I tried to look up groups on Goodreads for\u00a0Tourette Syndrome awareness<\/a><\/strong>, and not much came out of the search.<\/p>\n

So I started the group, \u201cTourette Syndrome Awareness Reads<\/a><\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Goodreads<\/a><\/p>\n

Its purpose is to give us a place to productively discuss literature that includes Tourette Syndrome in a positive, encouraging environment. Not all Tourette Syndrome literature is created equal; some books are hidden jewels, while others probably shouldn\u2019t mention the disorder at all. I\u2019d love to see people discussing these pieces of literature more so that we can work to find what the world of Tourette Syndrome really has and really needs. I\u2019d also like to see books discussed that include\u00a0comorbid disorders<\/a><\/strong>, or disorders that often occur with Tourette Syndrome.<\/p>\n

If you have any suggestions for the group, please feel free to email me. I\u2019ll do my best to bring some books to the table for initial discussion, but I\u2019d love to see other people bring their finds as well. Thanks so much for your support, and have a great start to your week!<\/p>\n
