Dia dhaoibh, is mise Maidhc, agus táim i mo chónai i gcathair Chorcaí. Táim i m'iriseoir (#journalist) lena Irish Examiner agus The Echo, agus is duine uathach (#ActuallyAutistic) is foghlaimeoir #Gaeilge mé.
On the topic of #Autism, please check out a piece I wrote back in April, about my own experiences, plus some handy Irish resources:

In my spare time... I love my city, its local arts scene and have a huge interest in Irish(-made) art, culture and entertainment.

How do you know somebody's from Cork? They'll tell you.
@ralphthewonderllama How else are people to know?
@mike_mcgb Hup! Bannerman here. *Shakes hurley*
@mike_mcgb Dia duit! Ta me i mo chonai i gCorcaigh fresin. I loved you article about finding out you are autistic in the Examiner btw.
@niamhgarvey Go raibh míle maith agat - an easy write and a hard edit! Good to meet other autistic writers in Cork, also - always up for chats if you'd like!
@mike_mcgb sounds good. Don't know any other #ActuallyAutistic writers i gCorcaigh. (Or at least ones who know they are autistic
)
@niamhgarvey This is it! The more it gets talked about, though, the more that people hopefully get and stay wise about autism!
@autistikat @mike_mcgb yeah it is confusing alright.
