Anything but Typical

by Nora Raleigh Baskin

Twelve-year-old Jason Blake is anything but typical. In fact, he has autism.

Told from Jason’s point of view, this is an unflinching glance into the life and mind of a young man. A young man with more struggles than the rest of his peers.

Here’s the thing: Jason is a writer. He finds solace in his writing and posts his stories on Storyboard. It is here, in the virtual world, where Jason is just like everybody else.

Wonderful.
