  • Thank you for this.  I have a bit of an obsession with the bios of other autistic people - both the ordinary folk like us and the famous brave enough to go public.  I've read a fair few of these, but have gone down your list and found a few more to add to my wish list. :-)

    You do always come up with the interesting stuff...much appreciated

    Hi Dawn. That’s great! There are so many autistic authored memoirs to choose from that my reading list keeps getting longer! What titles have you added to your wish list?

    You are very welcome! I aim to engage in as much autistic led content as possible, to understand the diversity of our community!
