Do you generally read or write fiction and/or fanfiction?
I spend my life reading and writing stories of various types, and I wondered if this is normal for autistic people. I thought we were supposed to have very limited imaginations and interests and that was how we got diagnosed. But my imagination is vast, I tend to live in a fantasy world rather than the real world because it is nicer tbh!
What is your imagination like?
I love writing, it has always been my dream to be a writer. I have a very vivid imagination, sometimes too viviid, so the steryotype of the limited imagination really bothers me
Nice to know you are the same
Yes, I didn't identify myself with autism...well...ever really because I've got a very vivid imagination.
Beware reviewers and critics if you become a writer, they are evil.

is not the worst what they attribute to us
limited intelligence, limited senses, limited lifespan, limited mental health, etc.
but the truth is that those stereotypes stem from their inability to imagine that something might be more than what they think of as maksimum.
