No worries, I understood what you were getting at and that you didn't mean it in a general 'asexuals need to be fixed' kind of way, but I couldn't let the wording pass without comment. :P
(Also: link to AVEN on the main page of my LJ - verra helpful. Off the top of my head I think the address is www.asexuality.org but I could be wrong). Or chuck questions at me if you'd like, and I'll do my best to answer them, I spent a lot of time on the AVEN forums a few years ago, very interesting conversations.
One of these days I'll write more stories about aces (I have one so far, my first ever multi-part story, which shows). There needs to be more ace stories on the 'net, it's just that the other stuff is generally easier without getting preachy. I mean, how do you show the difference between a romantic ace and a romantic non-ace in a romance story with no sexual content/focus?
If you do take up the challenge I wish you luck! :D
