Hello, and welcome back to The Autistic Writer. How are you all doing? I'm managing to type with two hands, although still in some pain with my shoulder. I did get my pain-killing injection though! Did it go without a hitch? No! If I wasn't such a materialist determinist, I'd swear fate was trying to … Continue reading Part 47: Opinion ≠ Experience

Part 45: All Mouth
Hello, and welcome back to The Autistic Writer. I hope you're all well. This week's blog is going to a shorter than normal (stop cheering, you at the back). The reason for this brevity is I'm struggling to type, due to the horrendous pain in my right shoulder, which has partially immobilised my arm. At … Continue reading Part 45: All Mouth
Part 44: Monochrome Mishaps
Hello, and welcome back to The Autistic Writer. I hope you're all safe and well. In this week's blog, I want to talk about a subject that often comes up when people talk about what autism is like.

Part 42: For the Love of Bill
Hello and welcome back to the Autistic Writer. I've got a treat for you this time! The emotional eruption that constitutes this week's edition is my love letter to the man, the legend, the force of nature, the unintentionally hilarious and obliviously sickening entity that is William "Bill" Shatner!

Part 40: Surviving the Hall of Mirrors
Hello, and welcome back to The Autistic Writer. I don't want to sound too British, but how ridiculous has the weather been? Waterproof parka one day, shirtsleeves the next. *Puzzled shrug* On the subject of clothing, I had something pleasant happen this week.

I hate to start with a shameless plug, but one of the reasons I'm so pleased with myself is that I finally got my old novel, … Continue reading Part 39: The Healing Hand?
Part 38: The Second Windmill
Hello, and welcome back to The Autistic Writer. Thank you for being here. I've had one of those weeks in which the days have flashed past with life almost on autopilot.
