I am writing a book called "Autism, Anybody?" It is about my Autism and what I want to understand about (mostly) my own case, but other people on the Spectrum, as well. I have written an introduction-type appendix and 4 parts/chapters. I don't know what the parts/chapters after the 4th would be, though. I want to have at least 6 or 7 parts/chapters. I need ideas. I've already done these topics (titles are shortened or otherwise not exactly as seen in-book):
Anyways, I am most likely going to put it on Amazon as well as make it available in brick-and-mortar book/retail stores. Anywhere you can find books for sale, there is a chance that it'll be there. I might even send the Autism Forums staff a free copy! I'll also offer my friends, family members, and teachers free copies.
I'm not sure what I have it MSRP for. I want it to be affordable for readers, but also profitable for me. Maybe 15 USD.
Also, to everybody who currently does not live in the States, there will be a bunch of American English grammar and some American slang in there. I used ain't (which is an actual word, it's actually in the dictionary), so, if you are not used to words, terms, and spelling Americans such as myself use, you have been warned.
I want to get it published by the end of the year. I'll have my sister sister revise it for me. She is going to graduate from college next month, and she is an English major. I am pretty confident in my ability to write well, but not so much confidence when it comes to revising. Revising = weak point.
Expect to see it appear in the resource section of the forums in a few months or so. I'd love to have what I want to say go out into the world. I will start a blog about this.
Edit: I think I'll use future appendixes as places to put shorter pieces of information, such as lists and such.
- Identity-First Language
- I Can't Cure my Autism (don't want to)
- I am Born This Way
- What Autism is, What Causes It, Why People Shouldn't Fear It
