FOUND is an autobiography with an Asperger's tilt. Courageously, Judith reveals how she pulls out her inner actress to survive. The story is lyrical and raw as Judith describes how her family has dealt with major life stressors, the diagnoses of herself and her son, and the way they live life now. From colourful backdrops in remote Australia to suburbia - with a refreshing blend of creative writing, oral history, reporting, diary entries and narrative - Judith's topics include sexual abuse, mental health, death, financial disasters, education, intimacy and relationships. Shining in the midst of difficulty, her hope will inspire you.

Industry Reviews
I love the bravery with which you tackled 'doing what needed to be done' - it's written so well with honesty and self-awareness...so skillful. Karilynn

All your passion... just fills the pages... I love your writing. Jocelyn Suter

In your writing you really become your Mum's consciousness...you don't describe her experiences, you transcribe her very thoughts and emotions...how do you do that? Laura Mulley

Your friendship chapter gave me a real insight into your constant struggle between 'should' and 'want to' and makes me even more grateful and awe-inspired by the love and care you show to so many. I am convinced people with Aspergers will see themselves and feel immensely relieved that they're not alone and not abnormal... You are able to express your memories and sentiments so eloquently without losing authenticity - the voice of Judith is unique and above all honest. Carolyn Craggs

Re: the first chapter. WOW! It's shockingly awesome! By shocking, I mean it was a shock to me to learn you've had so much trauma in your life. Awesome because you have the courage to speak the truth about your experiences and not sugar-coat them. Jan Mills

I just finished reading your first chapter and I am in tears. The tears are two fold; for what you suffered and for God's mercy, grace and His tremendous love for you and how He has kept you and yours on this journey. Bev Hollier

No formality or courtesy... I really really loved the first chapter of your book... it made me teary and nostalgic about my own teenage years, my deceased father and the silly mistakes we all make during those tumultuous years. This is the power of your writing and now I can't wait to read the next chapters. Saima
