Autistic/Asperger's characters
Inspector Lewis Sunday night (on PBS), featured a character, an Oxford student, who had Asperger's. The character reminded me very much of Ian Mackenzie! He never looked straight into anyone's eyes, he knew what time he arrived anywhere to the exact minute and how long he stayed, was an artist who could draw anyone rapidly after a quick glance, he knew the social things he was "supposed" to do, but didn't really understand or much care why, and he was the master of the nonsequiter.

Added Books
All right, I made an extreme effort before breakfast (BB) and added all the books I've written under every name I could remember to my GoodReads bookshelf.

Jennifer Ashley books to ebooks on BandN.com
It looks like my Dorchester backlist is slowly being added as ebooks on B&N.com. I see
Immortals: The Redeeming
and
Highlander Ever After
from 2008 as well as
Immortals: The Reckoning
from this year. I am totally uninvolved in this process, so I don't know when the rest will be, but I'm happy that they've made a start.
All of my Berkley titles as Allyson James are up there, as well as my Jennifer Ashley historical novel: The Queen's Handmaiden.
I haven't tried these ebooks yet, but apparently you
