Summary

My Autistic Fight Song is a memoir that follows Rosie Weldon’s journey from a college drop-out as she tries to achieve her dream of being a qualified accountant. With the odds stacked against her and the stakes high, she refuses to give up on her dream. 

Of two things Rosie was sure. First, she wanted to be an accountant. Second, she was destined to be alone. But when life threw at her an autism diagnosis and a mystery girl, she was left asking: Who would employ her and was she capable of falling in love? 

My Autistic Fight Song is an honest and raw account of facing life as the underdog. When everyone around her doubts if she can, can she prove them wrong?

My Autistic Fight Song sees Rosie face high school, sexuality, relationships, mental illness, education, and work life.

Buy this audiobook today to step into Rosie’s journey and get a first-hand experience of autism and mental illness as she fights for her dream.

My Autistic Fight Song is intense and dramatic, yet heart-warming and uplifting. Through the darkest times of Rosie’s life there is love and laughter, a bittersweet balance of life’s cruelty and beauty.

This Rosie Weldon book is a must

This is an eye-opening, beautifully-written account of an autistic adult's journey into the higher education and working worlds. Rosie Weldon's narrative is engaging from the opening words and holds the attention till the end.
I felt every experience and was sometimes moved to tears at the enormity of the challenges she described. Rosie reveals the allies along the way who helped her to triumph together with the variety of strategies that she discovered to help herself.
There is such a lot to learn from in this book. I hope the lessons will be acted upon by all employers who come across this account. Hopefully, too, all who read or listen to the account will be inspired to be allies of autistic people.
