Finally, it could no longer be denied, and I had to proclaim it out loud. Little by little, as I was interviewing people for my 2 nd book, I become more and more aware, but just under the surface, a truth I didn’t want to utter for fear of sounding ridiculous, or making something real that wasn’t. Then I saw “Mozart and the Whale” and related to the female character. I was reading my first AS book by Maxine Aston and her paragraphs on women were hitting a nerve. Rudy: It was one of those backwards unravelings.
When did you first suspect you were on the autism spectrum? Were there any major signs? Sam: Rudy, I understand you were also diagnosed later on in life, like myself. What is your personal preference, if you don’t mind me asking. Before we begin, can you please tell me how you refer to yourself as an individual on the autism spectrum? For myself, I am comfortable with many terms, autistic.,Aspergerian, Aspie, and neurodivergent. Your well-received Aspergirls was one of the first books I picked up, years ago, before I came to terms with the fact that I am on the autism spectrum. It is a pleasure to have this opportunity to get to know you and to learn more about your recent works and projects.
