Storytelling / describing things and people

Post Reply New Topic

I've come to realise a big deficiency of mine in this regard. I absolutely cannot tell a story, be it a made-up anecdote or a short story or other piece of fiction. I'm capable enough of expressing my opinion, or commenting on something, but I do not invent any new worlds, no matter how little and insignificant - I seem to be cool living in this one.

Another issue is describing anything. How did he look like, somebody might ask me about a person I met, and I wouldn't be able to provide any coherent description. Lack of vocabulary isn't a possible explanation, so I'm currently trying to connect it to another explanation.

But... can anyone to relate to any of this?

Can't fully relate to this, but one thing is for sure: I am terrible at telling jokes. :D

I think I can. I feel stupid. Unless it's something specific and concrete such as explaining how to operate a machine, I'm hopeless.

Yes, it seems pretty common among aspies (and those that suspect they are on the spectrum)

It's a craft I work on constantly. I haven't perfected it yet. One day, though, I hope to.
