Hello all

I have been writing up something for the past 2 months or so, it isn't done yet, but the main theme is in place. It is supposed to be a book for parents with recently diagnosed children who are looking for some basic information like what autism is about, what causes the problems etc. It doesn't go incredibly in depth into any specific issue, but tries to provide an overall introduction.

Anyways, I am looking for some feedback on what I have gotten written up thus far. I want to know if it makes any sense, which areas are confusing, which areas need more clarifications or rewriting, etc.

So, if you have got a few hours free and are willing to read about 80 pages just to help out, then let me know and I will send you a copy. Either leave your email in a post, or send it to me in a private message, and I will email you what I have so far.

So... has anybody finished reading this? I don't mean to rush you but I would like to get working on the book again and I would like input before I go much further.

Tracker please send me a copy! I would love to read it. I can't promise I will finish it soon though, my spare time is pretty limited due to work and the kids but I will do my best.
