New Book
It has been a
while since I have posted on this blog, but hopefully those are interested in
my books and other writings/articles may be also interested in my current
pursuit of writing a new book regarding teenagers on the Spectrum.
This book will
encompass the relationships, emotions, anxieties, communication challenges, and
so many other things, which can be experienced by a teen on the Spectrum. The content of the book and its messages are
also very relevant to the parent/carer of a teen on the Spectrum, and will be
very much along the lines of a ‘team-effort’ in living life together and
navigating life’s challenges, as well as all the many positives.
Once I have
waded through my notes (back to 2011), finally pieced together the many
chapters and published this book, I will post another note here regarding how
and where it can be purchased by those who are interested.
I have several
patient and professional persons in Australia
and internationally (one a U.S.
university professor, teachers, parents and some wonderful individuals (adults
on the Spectrum) waiting for me to get this project ‘on-the-road’. Due to
experiencing an energy-sapping physical health condition since the middle of
2011 and (and now getting my health gradually back to ‘normal’), I have had to,
up until now, put my attention to completing this book on ‘hold’. I am not practicing as a professional
counsellor currently (due to my recent health concern) and have chosen to
concentrate on writing for a while. I may resume practicing in 2013.
Special mention
Recently, Donna Williams, an
internationally known, highly successful and respected writer/author, artist,
singer-song-writer and Autism expert (Donna is on the Spectrum herself),
endorsed me (via LinkedIn) for my professionalism, abilities and understanding
in the field of Autism/Youth. I am truly honoured to have Donna endorse my work
and experience in this field and am humbled by this recognition.
