More Craig Nicholls fans!! Hooray!! Sunchild, I'm going to pm you! How lucky you are!! :) I tried pm'ing Autumn_Shade a few times, but I don't think the messages went through. Hopefully I'll get a chance to chat with her one of these days! I also sent Alex Plank a message suggesting he try to get an interview with Craig. It's clear that he's been an inspiration to lots of us, and we'd get so much out of hearing his thoughts and experiences, especially about his diagnosis & treatment, and how/if they've influenced his creative processes.

Wow! That's a good idea! I wonder if he'd be up for it?

I hope so! As a celebrity who was diagnosed as an adult, after being completely trashed and humiliated in front of the whole world, he's got lots of valuable experiences to share about coming back from the bottom and being able to salvage his character and reputation as a musician. He's an amazing guy. I hope they consider trying to contact him!

Absolutely! I think it would be really valuable to a lot of people.

Where did you hear this? i do hope it's not true!
EDIT: It's OK I found the story on their site. Shame but they shouldn't have any trouble getting another deal.

Thats a great idea! I hope it happens. :) Most of the interviews with him I've read are before the diagnosis, it would be really interesting to hear about how its changed him and his outlook. But only if he's comfortable with it of course.

It's a very interesting read. He talks a little bit about his diagnosis. Lots of articles mention his AS, but theres not much about it from his point of view. I'm not sure if hes confortable with talking about it publicly. There was one interview that asked him if any tracks on the album deal with his diagnosis, and he sarcastically said there was this one song called "Asperger rock" :lol: I love his sense of humour, its so quirky and unique.

Hey, its me! I'm here, I'm back!! I CAN NOT believe I missed this discussion about my most favourite human being!! I'm sorry, I've been kinda distracted, and haven't been on WP for a while, (well you know, it happens) So yeah, I'm real late, but I would LOVE to talk to anyone about this fantastic, truly inspirational person.
I didn't get any pms :cry:
...so please try again, or I will just have to pm you!
