Discussion what is something unique about you?

[perishsong]

I taught myself to speak and read. As a toddler, I've been looking at grandma's numerous nursing books and haven't spoken a word till I was 4. Learning a language visually like that has had a few fun lifelong side effects, lol. I wrote my first short story when I was 5. At 6 I could read fluently, just a tad worse than an adult. I made my first grammar mistake in 6th grade, on a short story that moved my teacher to tears, lol. I'm often told I have a very "flowery" vocabulary. But on the flip side, I have situational mutism and have to rely on AAC quite frequently.
