My Autism Wish

My Story | Services | Speaking Arrangements | FAQ | Why I do autism work

Some people do not fully understand why I do my autism work. They advise me that "merely" sharing about autism is not "practical": I ought to provide therapies and treatment for autistic children because that is what people will pay for. However, my main purpose is not to "cure" or "treat" autistics.

After much effort adapting to Planet Earth, I spontaneously recovered my instincts and developed an intutive understanding of human life. Having received this rare gift, I felt that I have a duty to share it with the world too. For years I struggled to develop materials, theories and recognition to accomplish this without regard for my finances.

Although I have tried my best, I could not make a living from it. No publisher would pay me an advance for my books and no sponsor was willing to bankroll my work. My persistence has also strained my family relationships severely. After much agonizing reflection, I found a full-time computer job and relegated autism work to a hobby. At this moment, I focus most of my effort on this website since this is easiest way to reach a global audience.

Right now, my autism wish now is that my work will find its way to those who will benefit from them. If you can offer help or support towards this goal, please contact me at
