Real Life information
I've always loved reading, for as long as I can remember. I used to plow through books considered far too old for me, on one occaision badly shocking my mother when she realised the somewhat risqué nature of a series I had found in the school library and absorbed at the age of 12. I think that it was perhaps from this love of reading that a love of writing formed.
I also loved Sci-Fi, absolutely adoring Star Wars, and of course becoming hooked on Star Trek. I grew up on The Next Generation, which I think aired Down Under a few years after it appeared in the US.
I have Asperger's Syndrome, which is a very mild form of Autism. There's lots of information on the net if you're interested, but the short form of the view from the inside is that while you're smart, it feels like everyone else came into the world with an instruction book and you missed out. It's a very lonely feeling. It's something about the way we're wired, we just don't pick up the social hints and clues that neurotypical people seem to get naturally. Star Trek helped me a lot with this because I could really relate to Data, who has been described as the poster child for Asperger's Syndrome and is a classic example of what it looks like from the outside. From there I watched The Original Series and Voyager (never could get into DS9) and developed a real affinity for Vulcans, who are my all-time favourite Star Trek species.
