This work is structured around intermittent descriptions of each of the nineteen tics that form the 'repertoire' of my condition. Interspersed between these nineteen descriptions are brief pieces of writing that span memoir, theoretical writing, and fiction. This work may be of interest to those seeking material on critical disability, illness and life writing, photography, autobiography and memoir, speculative fiction, and visual art.Author owns copyright, except where explicitly noted.
