Fwd: Seeking Tips from and for AS and NT Partners for the AANE Journal fall issue

[Guest guest]

I'm forwarding this to the list in case anyone would like to take part.For those of you who haven't heard of AANE, they are one of the largest Aspergers organizations in the world and, in my opinion, one of the best. They are pro-AS, and many of their employees and board members have AS. They run classes, seminars, and social events for kids and adults, maintain a large library and can refer people to AS-savvy therapists.--LizBegin forwarded message:Date: August 23, 2012 11:17:40 AM EDTSubject: Seeking Tips from and for AS and NT Partners for the AANE Journal fall issueDear Members of the AANE Community of Spouses and Partners: For an article in the fall issue of the AANE Journal, I would love to hear, separately, from married/partnered adults with Asperger Syndrome (AS), and from their neurotypical (NT = non-AS) spouses/partners, about what has been most helpful in maintaining or improving your marriage or relationship with each other. What tips or advice would you give to members of other couples, perhaps especially those who are new to understanding the impact of Asperger’s on the relationship? We are thinking about this article as our communal version of author Finch’s “Journal of Best Practices: A Memoir of Marriage, Asperger Syndrome, and One Man's Quest to Be a Better Husband.” Some of you may have heard and speak last spring. We are also hoping to have them back some time in 2012-13, and this time to hear more from . We would not print anyone’s name. If you would like to contribute, please email your individual ideas or comments—shorter or longer—to.Loo@.... I would like to receive them by September 30th. In many cases, we only have one email, so please feel free to forward this message to your partner/spouse. (Some of you may get this message twice, through different AANE channels; please ignore the duplicates.)
