Is anyone else here legitimately on the autism spectrum? I enjoy reading and writing, but I feel like my imagination isn't as great as others. If it is, I feel like I have a difficult time both visualising different things and putting certain things into succinct words. My attempt at prose ends up looking like an instruction manual just to describe something because it gets so specific.
Does anyone else do this? I think it will hurt my chances of getting published or even getting people interested in whatever story I am trying to tell.

Everyone writes roboticly until they write enough shit to learn how to do it well and go from making shit to making crap until one day they may be able to make something ok
My brother has Asperger's and is obsessed with aggrandizing his vocab n sheit so he can write better

yes! i have autism and it's painful to feel so endlessly obligated to convey my ideas as accurately as possible. the ability to transcribe abstract thoughts into english can be quite difficult. it's frustrating; however, i thihk our preoccupation with being as proper as possible can be utilized as an advantage when it's not painful or crippling.
i often get accused of equivocation and being pretentious when in reality i always write like this because it naturally feels most comfortable to me.
you are not alone. it might turn some people away but draw some in. it depends on the particular person, i suppose.
i think people like it unless they get angry with you. then they just insult it because they need /something/ to insult you for.
