| Hello! Several months ago, several Aspies and I formed a Think Tank on Facebook to discuss world issues from an Aspergian perspective. Though there are many on FB right now, we have a farily successful one with over 100 members. Right now, it has grown from just Aspies to general intellectual discus... |

| Ok thank you. I am working on two projects right now, one for my home town and another that is a scifi book that heavily involves Asperger's Syndrome. I guess that the only thing I can do is keep fighting and remember that I should just try to live life to MY satisfaction, not what this ridiculous w... |

| I am a 25 year old Aspie who is in a grad school program and working on an amazing volunteer project for my hometown, but I am really depressed. I have been looking for a job for the past year and half in an area of America where jobs aren't plentiful and have no choice but to stay here until my pro... |

| Ya, I have a 50-page outline for mine right now that a few of my friends are reviewing, but I will start working on my story as soon as I can. I am trying to write a full novel here, so it will take me a TAD bit longer I imagine. I wonder how many Aspie authors are out there all together, as in publ... |

| Well, I completely sympathize with your views on the term "Aspie" and its possible negative conatations. But with the book I am doing, I am trying to make it looked at in a positive light. I know better than anyone how psychological classifcations make you look like a specimen, but I try to look at ... |

| Never said we would. I am just saying that if you really look at it, things really aren't solid and we COULD possibly really be living in a "holodeck" if you get what I mean...and if we are living in something like that, then theoreitcally there could a lot more to "reality/ies" than what we see...n... |

| It's what you believe I guess...aren't they doing an experiment now to test if the universe really is holographic? I thought I read an article on that. I mean when you really get down to the quantum level, nothing really is solid. And when you get to the Planck scale, things are perfectly empty...(O... |

| Absolutely. I am just saying that you know never know how far out things can go and that branes may not be the only level of things all together (if their real). But as we know things, based ON observation, you could infer that things could further out. I am not saying any of this is definate, but b... |

| I am actually writing a science fiction novel right now that has Asperger's as one of its main components. I, like most Aspies, love sci-fi, and this novel will basically merge what it's like being as Aspie WITH science fiction. I, like I am sure many of all of you are, are pretty much irritated by ... |

| I deeply believe in multieverse theory and brane theory. I personally think that there maybe something even beyond branes, but I am saying that philosophically but not scientifically. Now, does anybody know anything about F theory? I know it's complicated, but can anyone sum it up in a nutshell? |

| I find that one of the most effective things to help with this is to teach yourself to observe and be non-judemental. It is REALLY difficult, but it is one of the most effective things to do for mindfulness. I am struggling with it myself. |

Therefore I am writing this book to show what it was REALLY like growing up and Aspie and just how ridiculous it was for everybody who grew in recent decades in general. To be totally hon... |

| Well that is why I wish to write this book. I would love to tell the storyline but I feel safer by not posting it on the Internet like this. But I will say this: the main character will be very similar to me and other Aspies but that will be only the beginning. Eventually, the story delves into all ... |
