Seeking contributions from girls for our f-up book "The Girl's Guide"!

Hi again!

Day off today so I'm trying to catch up on correspondence including actually posting to the blog.

It has been great hearing everyone's response to Girls Growing Up on the Autism Spectrum and in particular, requests for a guide for the girls themselves. So, we've started!

We are seeking advice, suggestions, comments etc. from girls, teens, and women with ASDs on all the topics in our first book including:

1. what it's like being a female with AS
2. strengths and interests
3. handling adolescence and puberty
4. menstruation
5. fashion
6. hygiene and grooming
7. social skills and frienships and bullying
8. sexuality and dating
9. mental health, self-esteem
10. personal safety
11. gender, media, culture, society expectations

Also, poetry or drawings!

I can be reached through email if you are interested: drshananichols@gmail.com

Thanks! Look forward to hearing from you,

Shana.
