| While in the process of writing my memoir, I got in the mood for some other writing as well. Anyone like this short story? --- Kill an Aspie Once in the land of Bergum, the happiest place in the world, people lived in perfect harmony without anything ever troubling them. Life in Bergum had always be... |

| Yep, it's only considered a draft before studios work on it. I'm looking to get it sent to a studio. I've not studied much theory apart from reading a couple of other scripts, but the script isn't that heavily focused on the internal world of autism, it's fairly visible in people's actions. What I h... |

| I just finished writing a 130-page screenplay detailing me and my family growing up. Now I'm facing the task of trying to get some studio to pick it up, and I'm completely new to this industry. To be frank, I mostly wrote this screenplay in the hope that I'd be able to get out of the life I have her... |

| Perhaps this movie can inspire you: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1200259/ - The man who lives with bears. He lives half the year in a cabin in Alaska with bears. I found it one of the most fascinating documentaries I've ever watched. You can easily find the movie on torrent sites. |

| Hmm, making more audience-friendly documentaries and movies was a good idea. The one I made was a rather confrontational documentary about Sweden. I had hoped rightwingers would react to it the same way leftwingers reacted to Michael Moore's movies, but so far it hasn't happened. |

Now it seems it won't be the hit I had hoped for, and I mostly just face criticism when advertising it. I'm living outside my society, Sweden, seemi... |

| I considered myself employable at the start of my adult life, though at that time, family life was very turbulent with two broke, unemployed and alchoholized parents, and I didn't get any help getting a job, so it wasn't long before I got stressed out from trying and gradually slumped into apathy.

A male might not know how to attract a female, and a female might be uncomfortable with the typical male attention. By contrast, in an LGBT setting, I suppose anything goes... |

Kind of funny, he ran that story for three weeks straight on his radio show, how he had been victimized and that the US government should intervene on his behalf. He even compared himself to Jesus because of it, here's... |

| I've got a playlist up on Youtube as well, where the movie is divided into 25 clips. I wish Google video hadn't turned off the upload ability, so I could put it up full-length there. Sadly I've not found any free services where you can host unlimited length movies, only ones you pay for. |

It was so traumatic going through, this clash between my perception of myself, and theirs. I didn't even ask for care or fail in any way of func... |

Social services should stay out of the lives of people so they understand it's their own job learning to take care of themselves. In Sweden, the government spends enormous amounts of money ... |

| That would be funny and ironic if he did have it. I would wonder if he knows he has it or doesn't think he does. Could he have been raised the same way he suggested what you have to do to autistic kids? Sometimes people grow up thinking of the same actions you do to kids because it was done to them... |
