Overview

David is dying, or maybe he isn't. Hard to say, really, because no one ever gives you a timetable when you're disabled, autistic, queer, and stuck improvising your way through existence. What he does know is this: if life is going to keep punching him in the gut, he might as well write it all down first. A Life in Too Many Margins is the story of a man looking backward while time keeps nudging him forward. From childhood misunderstandings to medical disasters, David is collecting the fragments of a life shaped by truths he didn't discover until far too late: that he's neurodivergent, that his body will never play by the rules. That gender was never the box people insisted it had to be. If you've ever felt like the world wasn't built with you in mind, or if you just enjoy a dark laugh in the middle of disaster, David's story will remind you that sometimes real life only happens... in the margins.

Reviews

""I cannot properly express in words what this book means to me, but I can tell you that I will be treasuring it and re-reading it for years to come. And I am confident that you will, too."" ""Dark, hilarious, and painfully real. This book made me laugh at things I definitely shouldn't have-and then punched me right in the feelings.""

Author Information

S. E. Thomson writes stories that blend dark humor with sharp honesty. Autistic, disabled, and trans, he knows firsthand that life is rarely tidy, easy, or inspirational, but can still be deeply funny and worth sharing with others. Thomson's work refuses toxic positivity and embraces the messy middle ground, creating space for readers to see themselves as they really are: complicated, resilient, and never alone. His writing is as much a survival map as it is a love letter to the people who keep showing up, even when the world makes it hard. S. E. has worked hard to be able to laugh and move forward, embracing the joy in the world. He writes to help others and to create the kind of stories he wishes he'd seen growing up: supportive, sad, affirming, painful, and funny.
