Book Description & About the Author
Trudy Marwick was born in South East London in 1965. She has
spent most of her life living around London. Now living in Orkney
and married to Malcolm and bringing up their children.
Her childhood spent trying to catch up with her brother and
avoid bullying at school; she drifted into Teacher Training College
but left after 2 years. She trained and worked in Personnel but now
spends most of her time doing local voluntary work. Following years
of research into Disability - particularly Autism and Aspergers
syndrome Trudy could see some similarities between her childhood
and that of her son.
Having been told at school that her stories lacked imagination,
and were poorly put together, Trudy didn t feel confident about her
writing. This is the first subject she has felt passionate enough
about to overcome her fears of rejection and she wants her story to
make a difference to others. Her insights into living with autism
will be challenging and interesting to others who face diagnosis or
who work alongside those with a diagnosis. Sometimes sharing the
humour, sometimes the tears.
Researching her son s diagnosis of Autism spectrum disorder
made Trudy face her own difficulties. She shares her journey of
life s ups and downs living with autism.
