most nervous about with communication difficulty is lose ability to write stories... write stories is favorite way to express ourselves! not want to lose that specifically 3:
can make ourselves still use good-ish grammar when doing okay and when writing. don't know what about writing stories make it easier than when talking candidly. just is easier. maybe helps that not talking to other people and story write just for selves? maybe is because familiar? just happy still able to write stories for now.
read own old stories also easiest way self-regulate when not have access to audio. because is familiar and almost always involve special interest (because write fanfiction of special interest). read own fanfiction more regulating than read original source material!
have been write stories since elementary school. elementary school stories not very good, but have got better over time, make stories better for self. not want lose story writing, because if lose story writing (good for expressing self, get out ideas), also lose story reading (best silent self regulation). even if have old stories to read, always want new ones to keep fresh, and more stories have, more better regulation, ability to regulate for much longer, have more choice.
hope not lose write stories even if lose all else...
