Just thought I'd share this - Rudy Simone is going to be in the UK in the next few weeks - I'm going to her event in Manchester and I'm really excited :) The ticket prices weren't too bad, and there's a reduced rate for those on low incomes.

Here's a link to her website's calender, you can follow the links to book tickets and / or get more information:

I'm not on commission or anything, just thought I'd share to see if anyone else is interested :)

The one time I heard Rudy Simone speak I was disappointed that she refused to take questions from the audience afterwards.

I saw in Manchester too. She was supposed to be signing books but there was a mix-up and they weren't delivered, so then she was going to sign flyers instead.

At the end of her talk she was doing her Auntie Aspie routine and taking questions from the audience. Because a lot of questions were anticipated the organisers asked people to write them down on cards. I think this was while Rudy was off getting into character and I'm not sure anyone told her about the change of plan. She seemed surprised when she came back and after a few cards she asked to go back to having the mic handed round.

She had been speaking for nearly two hours by the end, and I wasn't that surprised when she cancelled the signing and just asked for her Facebook Friends to come up and say hallo. She said she felt brainfried.

 

I was disappointed too but that's the nature of Asperger Syndrome. She needed time and space to recharge and it would have been a mistake to ignore that no matter how much I wanted to thank her.
