?

I have an idea... we write a book, to raise money for the commune foundation. About the most monumental experiences we've had to do with AS and/or comorbids. We get the artists to illustrate parts of the stories... and to do a lot of it... so lots of cool pictures of people sitting in shrink's offices, passed out on the bathroom floor, praying in church, being beaten up in the schoolyard, being laughed at in class, sitting in a lockup, arguing with a cop, crying into a shrink's desk, arguing with a pharmacist, arguing with a Social Services worker, arguing with a school principal, on the computer, sitting with diagrams and notes plotting a school explosion, putting glue on a bully's chair,playing their favorite computer game, making wierd inventions, etc. :D

That's actually quite a good idea. I'd like to contribute if I can (not so good with the drawing, though).

We could write an eBook instead and allow free downloads, giving people the choice of donating to Autism Awareness or something . Hey, if it worked for Radiohead, it could work for us too. :)

Hello,
I will contribute if you want me to.
I am not able to draw, my hands are too unsteady,
but I am able to write.

I can also photoshop.

If you wish for me to help, I will.

Photographs of reenactments of people's stories are great too! Yay! Now 3 are in! I'll also try my hand, if I can, so maybe 4 of us, and Adverb is in on this too, though I don't think he's an artist.

I draw a bit myself - http://www.ratemydrawings.com/user/lastcrazyhorn

So count me in. Maybe I could help draw the weird invention part.

I'm mainly a puppet maker, but I can draw and paint. I had to try it all in college before I figured out what I wanted to concentrate on.

I can draw something if you like then have a friend photograph it and I can send it email as an attatchment.

I havn't figured out how to post picture in here yet.

If anybody would like to they can go look at MySpace.

My puppets are not up yet but I have a slide show ready to install.

What you'll see are some of my sculpture mock ups, and some special effects make up work.

What's "the commune foundation"? I'm an artist, but that's not really my style.
