Yes, another blog post! Can you handle it?<\/p>\n
Okay, let’s just say I’m working on a book that is about living well with autism. I need a sample chapter PDQ, so I am asking all of you autism parents to think about the worst thing that ever happened, the worst crisis ever concerning your autistic child<\/span> — this could be how others treated him\/her; a school system idiocy; a total meltdown; an embarrassing episode; a really annoying behavior. Now don’t worry, this is not a book that will denigrate autistics<\/span>; it will be a book that illustrates the entire gorgeous and horrifying, boring and mundane, the spectrum of life, the panoply of being, whether autistic or neurotypical, and how to figure out happiness moment-by-moment living with an <\/span>au<\/span>tis<\/span>m<\/span>–<\/span>ti<\/span>nt<\/span>ed<\/span> family life. After you have described said crisis, briefly tell me, what did you do about it that resolved the problem? And, what did you do to make yourself feel better while it was happening?<\/p>\n Email me a little summary or leave a comment with contact info (email or phone). Then when I’m ready I may contact you for an interview and you will be one of the Voices of Experience in my new book.<\/p>\n And thank you very much.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Yes, another blog post!
