Hi! I'm conducting interviews with women with autism for a new book project. I'm devising a questionnaire now--not too long, or people will be discouraged from doing it-- and not too short, because I need significant information.

I'm doing it on: (1) Diagnosis-how hard was it? (2) Career (3) Relationships
(4) Sex

These four areas are my basic core.

I'd like to get your thoughts about what subjects to include and questions to ask for these core areas. I have a list of questions but I want to make sure I cover as many issues relevant to women as possible.

Also, if you are a woman with an ASD, please PM me. I'd love the opportunity to chat with you or do an email interview as soon as the questions are fully designed.

(My credentials: Master's in psychology, Master's in special education, Director of America West, Autism Women's Network)

Thanks!
