I don't think I look young for my age, but I'll ask someone. It'll be a while though. I don't expect to see anyone except for my partner until Wednesday.
And my partner won't know either. |

| I find that my social skills are better if I limit my social contacts. I had a hard time coping with work and colleagues, and eventually I changed my work. I work now mainly as an author, but I can only afford to do that because I have a partner who backs me financially. I also have a small parttime... |

| Sorry that you are having a hard time, turtleoverhare. I can see how some people would want a cure. I don't. A cure would make mean making me someone else, and I am quite happy being me. But I suppose it depends on what you call cure. I used to be very miserable and lonely when I was younger. I thou... |

The free promo has ended. The book now costs £1.53 / $2.99.
Still great value! 
I will make it free a free promo again one day in September. Amazon only allows 5 free promo days in three months, so I am spreading them carefully. |

| I am a woman, and I am very good at reading facial expressions, yet I still got diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome. Like Foxfield pointed out, facial expressions are just a pattern like everything else, and intelligent people can learn those patterns. I happened to have a bit of an obsession with hu... |

| I type with eight fingers, leaving out my flimsy little pinkies. My speed is low to average, and I make loads of errors. However, my handwriting is even worse - I miss out letters and words, I can't read it, and I tend to get cramp in my arm after three sentences. So I stick with my dodgy typing. It... |

| I've written and published a novel, and today it is available as a free download on Amazon. (if you have no kindle you can always download the free kindle reader software) It is a dark fantasy/paranormal novel with a tad of horror. Aimed at young adults, but a good read for many adults too. The main... |

| Love your artwork, Brandon! Is it possible to make more detailed maps? Or is that really hard? I believe it is, but that would be tedious. I was actually hoping to find better photo patterns for the terrains on that map, but most of the good ones are either expensive or require special registration... |

Personally, I think Heathcliff needs to grow up and stop behaving like a stroppy toddler.
So... Dickweed. |
