    Who wants to write a book this March?

    The business of writing, from a Level One Autistic point of view

    A year ago I wrote a memoir titled DESERTPHILE: A PERFECTLY SANE MISANTHROPE HIDES IN THE DESERT. I am still looking for a literary agent to represent that manuscript. Is there anyone here who has autism and has written a memoir? If so, how many I get a copy to read? Thank you.
