How to Make a List of Asexual Books Post
So… There’s something I’ve noticed about a lot of people making lists about asexual representation. Actually, there’s a few things I’ve noticed and they all fall into slightly similar patterns.

After… much consideration and deliberation I’ve decided to up the length of time posts are Patreon-exclusive to a month. No changes will be made to any of the other posts, but it will be a full month before blog posts and review posts cycle through to the main blog and become publicly available. This change […]
