SAHCon 2020: Writing Aromantic and Asexual Characters

Panel from SAHCon 2020 on writing aromantic and asexual characters. A focus on Homestuck fanfic, but it can be applied generally as well!

This panel was one of my main interests in SAHCON and I must say I don't regret attending, you seem like such a nice person ⋅u⋅
I wish you all the courage and success in the world for your artistic career, and I hope to be able to attend to another stream of yours in the future, even if it starts at 2 A.M. in Europe ⋅u⋅

Thank you so much! I got a number of very positive responses about the panel and I'm so glad everyone enjoyed it and got something useful out of it!
I do upload my streams to CZcams if you can't feasibly participate live!

​@@alt-universewash2825 Sure, but I feel streams that are not fiction reading would benefit even more from a more prominent input from the chat. I believe you're already quite familiar with what your friend's positions and arguments are, so it really was just restatements, and I find it a bit sad.
Now, it surely does not mean it's worthless, it still is interesting to listen to as a discourse, but I feel like a substential part of the experience is lost.
Don't worry though, I'm positive I'll appear in chat at some point, I have a quite flexible sleeping schedule ⋅u⋅
In the meantime, I'll probably enjoy the content from the cold shores of CZcams ⋅u⋅

@@heartbeat_root Yeah, for sure (assuming you're referring to the hanging out stream) - that was something that wasn't really planned, so definitely would be interesting to actually have some people talking in chat in the future with some more lead-in.
