Hi Readers,
Blogging is a new lifestyle for me. I welcome the chance to be heard, but I’d love to hear from you too. Are you parents of autistic kids, family members, professionals, people with autism, or just curious? I’d love to ge feedback.
If you are on facebook, consider becoming a “like” or “fan” to get regular postings. I am shy, really, so it is weird to write to anonymous.
All the best,
Ido
I am an autistic guy with a message. I spent the first half of my life completely trapped in silence. The second – on becoming a free soul. I had to fight to get an education but I succeeded, graduating high school with a diploma and a 3.9 GPA. I am continuing my education in college. I communicate by typing on an iPad or a letter board. My first book, Ido inAutismland is an autism diary, telling the story of my symptoms, education, and journey into communication. My second book, In Two Worlds, is a novel. I hope through my work to help other autistic people find a way out of their silence too.
My newest book is now available in paperback, on Kindle, and on Smashwords!
My first book is available in paperback, Nook, Kindle, and iBook editions!

Hi Ido,
As you know, I am a parent and a fan. You have always been my “go-to guy” for insights into Dillan’s world. Now that you have a blog, I can pop over and touch base whenever I get a chance, and that makes me happy. Dillan is just at the start of his communication journey, and I need that reminder, and sometimes kick in the you-know-what, to push forward no matter how difficult it might be. You keep me on track (and so does your mom :). Blog away!!
Thanks Tami!
I am a parent of a high-functioning autistic (he was labelled PDD-NOS and ADHD). I just started reading. It is so encouraging to me to read stories of people who have overcome autism to achieve their dreams. Thank you for sharing!
Hello! I live in Belgium. My son Arthur is autistic. I love to read your blog.
