Dear Eric, For a while, I thought it was a real story. But toward the end it got a little bit too "romantic" for it's own good. Would "Don" really be such a smooth jewel if he was an Aspie? I think it would be more interesting if this was a novella and Sandra was trying to cope with the disorder wit...

Your story is inventive, but entirely self-referential. I read it, and I'm not entirely sure "what's going on".

It weighs down on me like a ton of bricks, like I'm getting bluedgeoned with a hammer by "THE BRINGER OF DEATH". He does not carry a schythe over his shoulder, but a 40-pound sledge. I ...

Dear AnonymousAnonymous, There's way too much clinical detail crammed in there. I'm surprised the two main characters aren't twitching on the floor and carried out on stretchers, their case histories sound so wretched.

Dear Aspie Community, I wrote this story up on my website about finding the courage to live, despite the wretchedness of everything else related to being a "social misfit". "To be or not to be?" That is the question. . . . . . http://www.dearwinona.com/heavy_metal_hedonism.html Yours in solidarity, ...
