I am so excited to talk to you about autism and scripting on our podcast today. “What is scripting?” is a question that I get asked quite regularly from my followers – and from parents as well. There isn’t a whole lot of information readily available about scripting.

It’s because of the lack of information, that a lot of people actually confuse scripting with echolalia. I have been fortunate to attend many training opportunities and conferences over the years that have allowed me to gain more knowledge about scripting.

However, I also love to read books. But, we all know how quick time can go – and sometimes the lack of time that we have available. It’s because of this, that I signed up for scribd.com

Scribd.com allows me to listen to books that I may not have the time to read. And I love to listen to an audiobook when I’m on a long journey, getting ready in the morning or even while I’m in the bath! And there are some great ones available on there for finding out more about autism.

Another great way that I find out information is by using #actuallyautistic and #askanautistic hashtags on Twitter – there are lots of great autistic individuals on there sharing helpful information.
