“Hello, this is Alex, and this is Alex’s Asperger Vlogs”… ahhh, the intro of my YouTube channel brings back memories. However, I think making a blog will be better way for me to still reach out to other people that have Autism like me. I love writing, and I think I’m way more expressive with my writing than I am in my videos.
I’ve been using Twitter a lot within the past year, and I just love making tweets. It’s so fun! However, I’m limited to only 140 characters. I’ve wanted to go more in depth into many of the tweets I’ve posted. My tweets are almost always close to the character limit. This platform, I think, will be a great way to reach out to others in a way that my energy can handle. Making YouTube videos was easy when I first started. I had no job and no school. However, now that I work 2 jobs, I’ve been finding it harder to post videos (if you combine my hours, they equal full-time). I’m tired a lot, and I’ve found that making videos is not really relaxing and fun like it used to be. However, writing is more therapeutic. I feel like I can write all day long, even after a long shift. I write screenplays, social media posts, write ideas in my Ideas Journal, message friends, the list goes on. I have so much fun doing these things.
I hope you guys will enjoy my blogs as much as you do my vlogs. Maybe even more 🙂
If I were to briefly tell you about me, I would say that I am an artistic woman who loves Jesus, seeks truth, and share what I believe is truth. I was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome at the age of 2. It is now considered a part of the Autism spectrum. My blog also shows much about who I am. I think telling you the purpose of my blog will give you a greater idea of who I am. My blog posts are not only about what it's like having Autism and my various views on it. Some blog posts will also be about my views on things like writing, art, politics, spiritual topics, and other stuff. The purpose of writing about things other than autism is to show NTs what the various perspectives of one autistic person can be. Not all autistic people share the same perspectives. Some are liberal; some are conservative. Some want a cure; many do not want a cure. Some have friends; some have no friends. Some are straight; some are gay. Some are mean; some are kind. You will learn a lot about me through my blogs posts if you read them. One last thing: the reason why I call my blog Alex's Autism Array Blog is because I am part of the array of Autism. Not every autistic person is the same. I am an example of that, and this blog acknowledges the array. I am not just artistic, have a spiritual personality, and love to learn. I am also a human being that has views that can be both the same and different from another autistic person's views.

I can relate – I find writing to people easier than talking to them! Writing allows me to organize my thoughts, and I have unlimited time. However, I lack the creative vein to write fiction. Hey, I look forward to more posts! 🙂

I have never made vlogs before, but I would imagine that editing them would be a nightmare!
Writing has always been something that I enjoy doing. I look forward to reading more of your blog!
