The stories in this book are about women who are married to, or were once partnered with, men on the mild end of the autism spectrum, formerly known as Asperger’s syndrome. These women are not autistic, so their relationships are considered neurodiverse (meaning there’s a neurotypical person in a relationship with a neurodivergent person). The focus within the stories is Cassandra Syndrome. A very life-altering phenomenon that often occurs—and usually remains unaddressed—within these relationships.

The ability to remain and travel underwater for an extended period of time has long been a dream for a good portion of mankind, perhaps second only to that of flying. The first “submersible” may have been a kind of glass container made for Alexander the Great so that he could observe undersea life firsthand. Despite this early attempt, fate decreed the idea of traveling beneath the surface of the water would lie fallow for nearly another 2,000 years after this experiment in about 332 B. C. Alexander’s death the next year effectively squashed any further developments.
