This was really well put. It's unfortunate the internet groups asexuality and aromanticism together. And congratulations on understanding yourself and what you want. That's difficult and awesome.

I'm starting to think "wait and see" might be the way to go with the categories. There could be a category we're not thinking of that once we get submissions we realize is important. Or maybe some categories I thought up get almost no submissions.

I am brainstorming an "Aro Writing Awards" Before I move forward I'd appreciate feedback, especially on the categories. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YuNpICpwSJel62FzfGudbscOrw0QXHhu15hsQpIquEQ/edit?usp=sharing Here is the form to suggest works. https://forms.gle/7uhPPhgk1wnTstrv5 This form will close on January 1, 2021. You may recommend your own work. Work must be available for free online. If multiple works by the same creator are submitted, not all will be considered. Any format involving words is allowed (podcast, webcomic, short story, poe

What a lovely thread! I hadn't thought about how being aro affects my DMing. I don't think it does??? It's more the partial sex-repulsion that makes it a pain playing with certain players who (mild references to inappropriate things). I was thinking of setting up a little collaboration project where a handful of aros and I write a collection of 100 aromantic NPC descriptions for campaigns. I'll push for it more after November (I expect many people who like to write may be focused on their own project for NaNoWriMo). But since I stumbled on this thread I thought I'd reach out. Fee

Ooo! I like the word "aroqueer" Welcome!

You could describe the feelings you had that you think might be romantic. You could describe what about the person you felt attracted to, or what you think triggered the attraction, or what you wanted to do with the person. You could describe how often or in what circumstance you think you are feeling romantic attraction. You could describe the kind of relationship you want (or don't want). Some words to consider if you're having trouble describing the feeling: glowing, safe, electric, warm, happy, calm, cuddly, desperate, longing, giddy, excited, curious, anxious, tense, loose, se
