From the unique perspective of a late-identified autistic adult comes a book about working to carve out a better life in the face of challenge and adversity. Interwoven with true stories of personal hardships and triumphs, A Long Walk Down a Winding Road offers ideas and insights aimed at inspiring and empowering the reader to enhance quality of life while also describing what it feels like to be autistic and not know it until age 40, as told by somebody who actually walks in these shoes. The book will be presented by the author, followed by Q&A with the attendees and book signings.
