I am a second generation socialist and have been reading and writing gothic fiction since the age of thirteen. I am also a member of the autistic community with Asperger Syndrome, and i enjoy blending autism pride into my work when i can. I believe that in order for people to understand autism and to stop the hysteria that surrounds it, autism and PDD's must be integrated into our culture, and that one way to do that is through writing. Also, because i take inspiration from many traditional gothic writers, my pieces are detailed and wordy. Don't come here looking for a quick, easy read.
