hi natalie,welcome to the group. :)

im also slowly writing a book,mine is on my good and bad experiences in institutional and residential care,if you ever want to talk about writing books im always up for a chat - i think your book will be a massive backup to the neurodiverse community as there arent as many autistic women writers out there as there are male, you never know it coud also help an undiagnosed person reading your book- realise they may be on the spectrum to and show them there is a name for what theyve gone through there whole life.

Thank you and yes I agree there should be more autistic woman writers. I would be happy to chat.

Hi dear,I have been thinking about writing a book about my lived life experiences as I’m sure it will be extraordinary to many people specially who live in western countries but never knew where to start from so I really appreciate if you could help me at least to learn where to start from.

Many thanks
