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'd like to think my imagination is good, I do love fantasy and fiction. My favourite video games and films are fantasy-based. And sometimes stuff in my day will spark my mind to think of little scenes between characters I make up.
Any media that has that level of immersion where you can fall into the world and live in it is always great!
My brother was into Adventures of Link and Final Fantasy. I was the resident Football-Loving Oik.
Nothing wrong with that! Everyone loves different things and that's what makes us so unique
That's a good view of it. I know I'll never be like anyone else, I've just started thinking that I'm an alien, meant to be isolated and alone. This helps somewhat.
