I'm an adult autistic person, and this is where I write about autism.
I write because, since I began learning about autism, I have found a distressing amount of malicious misinformation, egoistic experts, superficial stereotypes, unprofessional professionals, perplexed parents, callous cruelty and obscene over-generalisations. I hope to do my part in correcting this; in making the world a better place for my kind.

Unless specifically noted, my writings reflect my personal views, thoughts and opinions. I do not claim to speak for anyone but myself. That doesn't mean I won't report what others are saying, but I will not claim to speak for them.
It is quite likely that various other people, autistic or not, will agree with what I write. This simply means that we agree on some points. It does not make me their spokesperson. Also, while I do report the opinions of others, what you get are my views of these opinions.
On this site, I link to a lot of other places relevant to whatever topic is being addressed. Merely linking to a site does not mean I agree with everything, or for that matter anything at all, of what they are saying. If I agree or disagree with something, I will usually say so. If I haven't said anything, you may not assume what my stance is.
You are, however, quite welcome to ask.
