My Life A.S. Is

Autism and Asperger's Syndrome continue to affect an increasing number of children and adults around the world. They are puzzling conditions that create a barrier of communication between the child and anyone who wishes to know what the child is experiencing. After twenty-plus years of living on the Autism Spectrum, Benjamin T. Collier has written this book to help families understand a part of what their autistic loved ones may be going through. This is Benjamin's story. About the Author: Benjamin T. Collier was born with severe autism, and was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome (or High-Functioning Autism) at the age of seven. He has always had a unique way of looking at things, and began creative writing at the age of nineteen. He grew up in a Christian family and has been actively involved in the church community through the Alpha ministry and leading and helping in small groups. He is an avid gamer, as well as a fan and author of sci-fi and fantasy tales. He currently lives in Southern Ontario in a house surrounded by God's wilderness. On his blog (benjaminfrog.wordpress.com), Benjamin writes about spirituality, autism, pop culture, and often reviews television and films.
