The Asperger Computer (e-book) - Sample Paragraph

Posted on 22:06 by Unknown
This is the sample paragraph for my e-book adaptation of a speech I've delivered at my college, Champlain College Saint-Lambert, on May 1st, 2013. It's basically a rewrite of my original manuscript that most of the work the Champlain Student Association, the college's student government, had removed as we put our speech together.

It started out on January 20, 2013, from an idea where if I were to talk about many things that turn me down because of how it's related to my social stigma, no one would listen to me and help me out. It can be hard to deliver an inconvenient truth to those who are not taking social integration to people with mental conditions seriously enough.

Anyway, if you guys want to see a modified version of the PowerPoint file I've used in my speech delivery, it's up over here: http://www.slideshare.net/gregorydesrosiers5/the-asperger-computer-facebook-version

The big difference between this and my e-book is simply that there is a lot of content, and that I've provided the actual criteria of Asperger's syndrome from DSM-IV, but I did provide the writer's copyright information and referencing, as well as explaining in my own words, what those criteria mean.

Well, hope you enjoy reading my sample paragraph! Please be sure to follow me on Facebook and Twitter!

Hello, everyone. My name is Gregory Desrosiers. I am 19 years old and live outside Montreal, Quebec. I am a full-time student at Champlain College Saint-Lambert. And today, I present to you my current and latest social work produced to the media: this self-published book talking about Asperger’s syndrome like a computer or a computer program.

This is an e-book adaptation to a project I did at my college with the student government, the Champlain Student Association. We spent three months (January 21, 2013 – May 1, 2013) putting together a 40-minute speech on Asperger’s syndrome as a way to get my message out on being sociable with people regardless of the disorder I have. You can find a modified PowerPoint file of the one I used in my speech delivery on Slideshare.net; type in “The Asperger Computer – Facebook Version,” and click on the link that the preview photo is a solid, black background.

Anyway, what you will uncover in this text will not only set the reality of the social insight that other aspie seekers have, (aspie is the short term for someone with Asperger’s syndrome) but that it can potentially influence the power and perseverance of those with a mental disability, or those who lack authority and power, and want to get into the hand of today’s society.

This book contains details on what’s it like to live under Asperger’s in a social-related way, including some of the realities of symptoms. It also brings the topic about what my perspective under the social stigma is and what are a few particular suggestions that will influence everyone. Not just people with a social disability, but regular people too. Let’s get a few people, who have mental depression, into this story, shall we? They deserve to realize that they too can be helped with by the people around them for future success and potential.

The entire book is not completely on autism, to meet today’s media standards. No one’s going to pay attention to an entire 25,000 word text consisting on just autism if you’re discussing just that. Instead, you need to further expand your thinking boundaries and introduce yourself to the new world, which is what I want to do here. I have done this myself; no intervention, no discussions on how to build this together. All of this is just one little mind, and that is mine.

You’ll see for yourself what my education is, what my interests are, and what are my dreams and wishes. Hey, can’t we get a little helping hand with this? Why don’t you just inspire and positively affect me instead of neglect or discourage me? You’ll see the trend of success as you read along that you ought to empower me and some of the other aspies out there. Or if you, my reader, are an aspie, you’ll get inspiration; either from yourself or from other followers, you will see how to get yourself out there with power, smartness, and connectivity.

Internet, computer technology, video gaming, phones, movies, flash lights... It is limiting, but as you will see eventually, not one aspie person will be completely confined to just that.

So, what are you waiting for, ladies and gentlemen? Come on down and enjoy reading up as one of the few who are willing to give social support for me and the rest of the aspies around the world!

Let’s go into the depths of Asperger’s syndrome through computers and computer programming! Enjoy reading!
