  • Do We Expect Too Much?

    Do We Expect Too Much?

    Okay hang onto the end folks, this could get rocky. Plus I can’t edit stuff that upsets me. Sorry! I am seriously going off the therapies for autism. The messages are confusing and don’t work together. There seem to be a couple of broad types of high functioning autistic types. The type who do want…

  • I Can’t Log in to My WordPress Account

    I Can’t Log in to My WordPress Account

    Well obviously I can. I just have. But… Unfortunately I have a problem. I have previously pointed it out. Small things derail me. So I open Microsoft Edge, something asks me if I want to log into my google account. I being a sensible normal person, immediately turn off my computer and have a nap.…

    De Railed

    Judging by the people I’ve talked to, a lot of autistic people like trains. I can see that. I mean the movement of a train is very soothing, in my experience the older the better. There’s lots of traditions, lots of random groups of trivial facts, and cartoons, and murder mysteries, there’s history, technology, science,…

  • I Think I Can Write a Script.

    I Think I Can Write a Script.

    Actually I don’t. I joined a Scriptwriting writing group because the guy running it wasn’t comfortable with the admin, and he was too important to lose. Once a month and some tips to hand onto my husband (scriptwriting was an early aspiration) and my drama obsessed offspring. But no it was a full on scriptwriting…

  • Hi

    Hi

    Hello, I’m not saying where I’ve been.   It’s depressing, boring and a barrier to me re-starting. Suffice it to say no where, I have been at home. All the pets are fine, except one psychotic fish who hates me,   who is actually quite healthy so that description is inaccurate. I’ll try again. All…

    Christmas in July – Lisa’s

    KSP Writer’s Centre A.K.A. The greatest writing centre in the world were having a literary dinner the evening of my Tuesday Writers Circle. So I made that our writing theme. Mum again wouldn’t write (because she is stubborn) and no one who wasn’t family came (because too many have met me). But triumphantly Tablet wrote,…

  • Can an Autistic Person Legitimately Become a Writer?

    Can an Autistic Person Legitimately Become a Writer?

    Of course disabled people can do whatever they want to.  Rah,rah disabled rights.  Okay, done? Seriously though, writing is supposed to be based in truth, right?  Even the most preposterous fantastic premise must be based on the human experience, it must have internal cohesion or it becomes pointless. So you write from what you know. …

  • Get Off the Rainbow, Autism Is Not All Positive

    Get Off the Rainbow, Autism Is Not All Positive

    I believe in Neurodiversity, I believe there are a lot of positives to being Autistic, but I don’t believe in the gag order some of the Neurodiversity lobby are trying to guilt us into.  Living with a person who is neck deep in all the darker aspects of Autism as  a disorder is hard. And…
