There will be an intensive discussion on putting together an Autistic publishing company at AutHaven next March.

I am not in charge of that particular project, but I am very much involved. The person in charge initially wanted non-fiction specifically pertaining to autism, but I think they are now going to include fiction by Autistics. We're talking about 5 years out before this project, and many others [other than AutHAven] come to fruition.

I am older than you, Anne, and quite ill. I am so envious of all of you healthy young people who are going to see and live in a world where being Autistic is accepted and embraced.

Your positive outlook makes me hopeful for the future of the acceptance of autism.
