Eric Garcia Libros

"In this groundbreaking debut, Eric Garcia draws from his own experiences as an autistic journalist to discuss the social and policy gaps that exist in supporting those on the spectrum. From education to healthcare, he explores how autistic people wrestle with systems that were not built with them in mind. At the same time, he shares the experiences of all types of autistic people, from those with higher support needs, to autistic people of color, to those who are LGBTQ. In doing so, Garica gives his community a platform to articulate their own needs, rather than having others speak for them, which has been a standard for far too long" --Page [4] of cover

Autistic person and journalist Eric Garcia brings an insider’s perspective and a reporter’s eye to show that autism is a vital part of his community’s humanity, not a disease that needs to be cured. 

Roy and Frankie, longtime partners in crime, face a shift in their dynamic when Roy's daughter steps into the spotlight. Their established partnership is tested as new challenges arise.

He's a P.I. with a tail, a gumshoe with claws. He's the first dinosaur detective-and he just might make all other crime-solvers extinct.

Cassandra French knows what men need: a bit of training... On the surface, Cassandra French is living the typical LA lifestyle. A lawyer at a film studio, she spends her days bored by the tedium of the Business Affairs department, and her evenings either dating a string of useless men or meeting up with her girlfriends to bemoan the uselessness of said men. But luckily none of this matters, because Cassandra French has a vocation. Cassandra is a woman on a mission. And her mission is to reform men. Because how is it that she's got such great girlfriends but never meets a man worthy of them? How is that a man can have no conversation, no manners and no fashion sense... and yet he gets his pick of beautiful women. Something has to be done. And so, in her basement, she's set up her own Finishing School for Boys. There men learn to dress well, to date well, to compliment a woman, to make great dinner conversation, and to leave behind all the arrogance, brutishness and idiocy that society has bred into them. It's all going brilliantly - her students are happy, Cassandra's succeeding at something she believes in passionately - until she enrols Jason Kelly, the studio's biggest star.
