Angela was interviewed as a guest on “Meet My Autistic Brain,” and we enjoyed the conversation so much, we wanted to drop it into our own feed to share with all of you!

* Why Angela wrote her latest book, The Equalizing Quill

* How AI can support Autistics with writing everything from books to emails.

* How Autistics can harness their special interests to make a living doing what they love.

* The bottom-up processing magic of Autistic brains!

“So I was like, I am now going to learn the neurotypical ways and I will master them. But yeah, it's like trying to learn how to be Irish if you're Italian. It's just not a learnable skill in any sort of healthy way.”

“As an author, there is no better superpower you can have than the ability to gather that data.”

“And you can simply change the world by celebrating autistic culture when you see it.”

“And I'm so grateful the leaders of the Deaf President Now movement and Gallaudet University who have taught me so much about being autistic from the ways they celebrate deaf pride.”
