Writing a Book

For the past few months, I have been actively engaged in writing a book. It primarily focuses on my life with Aspergers, as a woman and a mom with two sons, one with Aspergers and my Neuro-Typical boy with a physical disability. My severe child abuse story finally gets told. The secrets, horror and truth are revealed and put into print.

A majority of the information comes from the pages of my blog. I've made chapters out of my most popular and favorite postings, condensing and editing them into easy to read format. I so enjoy sharing the view from inside my world, along with the everyday, hard to see struggles of managing my Aspergian existence in a Neuro-typical world. The past couple of years have provided oodles of insight and awareness that I believe to be beneficial to Aspie and the NT alike.

My healing journey involves sharing the wealth of information and insight.

I have completed one rough draft. In reviewing the manuscript, I have surmised that rough draft #2 is in order. I am committed and dedicated into putting my "all" into this very important project. I can easily see its value and worth.

My life has been anything but ordinary. I am one of those survival stories you used to watch on Oprah, about the person who survived horrendous and insurmountable odds. For years, I lived in the silence, the speechlessness of autism, abuse, confusion and pain. My story needs to be told.

It's time. I want to share who I am. I want to let people in...on the remarkable beauty, insight and strength...that is me. The hiding is over. Let the truth begin.
