Hello from a nerdy woman with large glasses

Post Reply New Topic

Hello
Let's be direct, I'm not autistic strictly speaking, but I've been diagnosed with disabling synesthesia, sensory processing problems, dyspraxia and attention deficit. In addition, I have trouble identifying faces, and I'm more than just a bit socially awkward, so you can see why I'm here I hope to find people I can relate to, because I've always felt a bit lonely... Lost and trying to find with my own Gallifrey but I've not found it (not yet at least).
Other than that, I like travelling, animals, science, computers, science-fiction, and I'm addicted to Internet forums, to video games and to pizza
I don't know what else to add...

Welcome, Miss Algernon.

Hey MissAlgernon welcome.

Welcome aboard. Good taste, too - I remember "Flowers for Algeron", though it's been a decade since I first read it. Who are some of your favorite sci-fi authors?

Welcome Ms Algeron,

From A Middle aged woman, wearing wire rimmed granny glasses who is, short, fat, hairy, freckle faced with ginger hair from Bonnie Scotland

I'm short, not-so-hairy, somewhat heavy, middle-aged, and I wish I could find granny-glasses which fit my face.

Welcome!

I got them after becoming a Granny last year. I was quite tickled by the whole concept.

Welcome to WP! You seem like an interesting person. I'm addicted to Internet forums too

Hi and welcome to WP!

Welcome to Wrong Planet!

So many welcomes, thank you all

I won't be very original here, Carl Sagan and Isaac Asimov. I think that both stand out when it comes to inducing powerful emotions to the reader. There is a sensitivity in their books that's hard to find in other science-fiction books in general.

welcome!
