Goodreads asked Melissa A. Joy:

What mystery in your own life could be a plot for a book?

Melissa A. Joy No matter how much effort I would put into something, I always seemed to end up overlooked, shunned, or on the receiving end of negativity. Up until a few years ago I had thought "am I cursed?" And then I was enlightened to the possibility I may have some form of Autism. Soon after, I received a diagnosis of Asperger Syndrome. Everyone else knew I was different, and yet I didn't really recognise that until my diagnosis. One mystery was solved, but being an Aspie only sheds light on more questions about who and what an Aspie really is.
