I also draw and create digital artwork. My mom was my biggest fan, she died three years ago from cancer. I am disabled but yet able to write poetry. :-) I have high functioning autism, Dystonia, and Muscle Dystrophy. I was diagnosed with Autistic Savant Syndrome at the age of 30, I am turning 36 soon. I have been wanting to share my poetry with like minded people, that's why I have joined your community. I do have spelling error problems, sometimes spell check doesn't work for me. So sorry if you find any spelling errors in my poems. I will do my best to correct any spelling errors if you are so kind to tell me if you find any. Plus I want to improve, I can't do that without help. Peace out Amanda Shelton poet and artist.
