It's called 'Aspiracy', and it's about five disabled activists, three of them aspie, who try to fight a local council from introducing 'fitness exams' for mentally disabled people to determine whether they can live amongst 'normal society'. I've put it on lulu.com, but am unsure of whether it works.

Here's the link:

Thanks

Souns like a good story. When I finally pay off my credit card next month, I'll come back and download a copy onto my palm pilot (creaky, ancient thing that it is). Best wishes and congrats on the publication of your book!

I admire the discipline it took to write a book. I like the idea of being an author, but the actual work part keeps putting me off...;) good luck.

thanks for the encouragement. at times, i worry that it might be a bit poor, and that it often goes off on a tangent, but i tried my best. it actually only took a couple of months to write, though i'm unemployed (thanks to the discriminatory capitalist/state axis). i suppose if you have a really good idea and stick to it, you could write a book

thanks very much

i wouldn't recommend actually buying a print copy, as it seems too much (£8.95 for a book?). publication was quite easy and only took me about half an hour to do on the site

best wishes and that

cannot find a book under the link. just 6 magazine issues. Is there any other link and is there some extract I can read? I have also written a book and published on lulu :-) I made a website for it too: 8pwc.com
