    Hi, Aspie Writer here!!

    @Rasputin: All you can do down here is shake your head and let the s(p)it slide off your shoulders. As I said, I've been here for 17 years and my jaw still drops at the willful ignorance, the bigotry, and the hypocrisy of "born-again Christians". The metropolitan areas are pretty cool, but the...

    Happy Friday!!!

    It's about a high school girl competing in an art contest for the refurbished cafeteria as she deals with her day-to-day struggles with autism (Asperger's) and a bully who is suddenly friendly towards her.

    Happy Friday!!!

    I am. I finished the first draft of my novel, yesterday, so I'm gonna take a little time to watch movies and catch up on my reading while the novel "simmers on the back burner" so to speak.

    Sorry for my english...

    Here's my official hello, Joanna. Welcome!! I replied to your post on my introductory thread. And I agree with the others, here. People are really friendly in these forums, way friendlier than autism groups on social media, esp. Facebook.

    Hi, Aspie Writer here!!

    Hi Cadv! Yes, my daughter is lucky to be going to school in an age of awareness and Individual Education Plans. Mercifully, she has had only one bad teacher, and a few others have only needed 1-2 reminders about her IEP. Overall, the teachers in our school district have been fantastic and...

    Hi, Aspie Writer here!!

    Hi Peter, I'm curious, too, as to how many writers are here. It would great to form a group. I finished the first draft of my novel, this morning. It's a big hot mess but it has potential.

    Most messed up/Disturbing Movie You Ever Saw?

    The Holy Mountain (1973). I think I spent the entire movie with my jaw on the floor. An absolutely bizarre trip into blasphemy, sex, warmongering, and spiritual enlightenment. This film features the dumbest and most infuriating ending I have ever seen. But, hey, the cinematography is amazing and...

    Sheldon Cooper and Sean Murphy

    Hi!! I'd like you what folks here think about the characterizations of Sheldon Cooper (The Big Bang Theory) and of Sean Murphy (The Good Doctor). Did Hollywood capture their autism accurately? Did they go overboard? Did they miss anything? I'll wait a few days or so before throwing in my two...

    Being married to a not understanding partner, Help!

    Hi SofiaSwede. My gut reaction is: RUN!!! Initially, I thought your husband is the typical American alpha-male, one who was taught (possibly with corporal punishment if I had to speculate) to suppress and eliminate feelings because emotions are for women and wimpy beta-males. But, as I read on...

    Hi, Aspie Writer here!!

    @TheSaltyStray Hi!! Basically, I have trained myself over the past few years to set aside a specific block of time where all I do is write. And when I do write, I usually focus on the passage I'm working on. That way, my mind doesn't go running in a hundred different directions (i.e. new...
