Anyone else on the spectrum? You'd think something like this would have us flocking to it like NTs to a party! I mean, you get to OBSESS to the exclusion of EVERYTHING ELSE for ONE MONTH. And you get to make friends doing it, and they're online, so you're just typing to them.

And if you are out there, is it making NaNo easier or harder? It always makes making time easier for me. After all, no social life!

LOL. This is one thing we can do that the Downies can't. Not that I dislike Downies, I'm just slightly jealous of their... acceptance into society? We need to band together with them. They have great social skills, but they're stupid and compliant. We're often smart and stubborn, but lack social skills. Couldn't we do better as allies?

I have Asperger's, and the lack of a social life definitely helps with NaNo.

Just one question: What are Downies? In my sci-fi NaNo, it's slang for a person from the past (short for "downtimer").

LOL oops, I do believe my neologisms are showing!

Downy = person with Down's Syndrome.

I had almost forgotten I made that word up...

So yours is about time-travel, huh? How does your time-travel work?
