Reminder: Donna will be online to answer your questions on April 16, 2008

[Guest guest]

Hello all,

www.awares.org/conferences

Just a reminder that the next in our series of Awares one-day online autism

seminars in 2008 features one of the world's most celebrated writers with

autism, Donna .

Born in Australia in 1963, Donna was eventually diagnosed as autistic in her

twenties. A year after her diagnosis, her international bestseller, Nobody

Nowhere, was published which she followed over the years with three sequels,

Somebody Somewhere, Like Colour To The Blind and Everyday Heaven.She went on

to become an international public speaker and to write four textbooks:

Autism: An Inside-Out Approach, Autism and Sensing: The Unlost Instinct,

Exposure Anxiety; The Invisible Cage and The Jumbled Jigsaw, as well as

having a book of poetry and prose published in 2004 called Not Just

Anything.

She is also an accomplished sculptor, painter and composer. Recently,

together with her husband, , she helped create the world's first

international on-line self-employment facility for people on the autistic

spectrum at www.auties.org

Don't miss this unprecedented opportunity to put your questions to Donna

on April 16, 2008 - and please let anyone else know who might be

interested.

I will actually be making the site live on the evening of April 15 British

time (early morning April 16 Australian time) to give people around the

world time to read Donna's paper. The seminar will officially open at

12.01am British time on April 16, 2008, and will run throughout the day

until 11.29pm UK time that day.
