Happy New Year

  

Well, I almost didn’t write a 2015 post. I genuinely didn’t think enough had happened, then I realised maybe a lot did. 

I mean, I made a Twitter for my author stuff, I made a blog for my author stuff, and, well actually, I became an author, (a professional one, since I’ve had £2.51 transferred into my bank account.) 

I actually published my first piece of work this year, and that nudge inspired me to actually think seriously about writing other things. I was really quite proud of myself for writing my 100-page asexual love story in Basorexia, I genuinely, when reading it back couldn’t believe I’d actually written it, and that gave me my extra push. 

Tomorrow, I will release my first ever cover, of my first ever book, A, and I am beyond excited for it. 

I’m a little excited for 2016 as well, actually when I think about it. 

So, here’s to 2016!

Planning Asexuals

  

It’s not that I don’t plan my books. Because, I do, maybe not in the way, of sitting and writing in a notebook, but I do plan it. 

My main characters however, they had to be sat and wrote in a notepad. 

I mean sure, 22 year old Jesse, is asexual. 24 year old Jack, is asexual. 19 year old Charlie, is asexual. 23 year old Austin, is asexual. Even 44 year old Milo, is asexual, but there are so many different types of asexuals that they need to be planned. Their romantic orientation needs to be planned, whether they are sex-plus or repulsed by sex, their relationship status, their mono or poly view on relationships, and even if they indulge in self pleasure. 

There is just so much to think about, even before you can begin the story, and everyone of them is fascinating, they’re all different, even if they have similar traits, they are never the same kind of person, and I love it. 

These characters aren’t even like me, which makes it just even more fascinating, and fun.
