AAW: Advice on Coming Out

Oct 26, 2019 ~ Ellen ~ 2 Comments

One very difficult thing to do, for anyone of any marginalised orientation or gender identity, is coming out. Whether or not to do it, how to do it, when, where, and to whom? There's a lot to consider and it's no easy task. Since coming out as asexual is a little bit different to other … Continue reading AAW: Advice on Coming Out

Creativity is one of the best ways you can express yourself, so today's AAW post is all about appreciating the work of asexual and aspec artists! Some of the art here comes from friends of mine, and some is from the wider ace community. It is Inktober after all, so what better time to share … Continue reading AAW: Ace Art Appreciation

AAW: Asexuality & Attraction

Oct 24, 2019Oct 23, 2019 ~ Ellen ~ 1 Comment

In my first AAW post this week, I mentioned that there are lots of different kinds of attraction, and gave you a very brief overview of two of them: sexual and romantic. Today I'm going to go into more detail, about these two types and many others. For a lot of people, some or all … Continue reading AAW: Asexuality & Attraction

AAW: Asexual Books

Oct 23, 2019Oct 21, 2019 ~ Ellen ~ 1 Comment

Asexual representation in media has a long way to go, so I thought I would use this Ace Week post to showcase some books that feature asexual characters, plots, and themes (since this is also a book blog, after all). As a Young Adult writer and fan, I am pleased to say that most of … Continue reading AAW: Asexual Books

AAW: Asexual Activists & Advocates

Oct 22, 2019Oct 22, 2019 ~ Ellen ~ 3 Comments

One of the most important things for an identity that not many people know about is positive and accurate representation. With that in mind, I have compiled a small list of asexual activists I admire, who are doing an amazing job of bringing asexuality into the mainstream, and making sure the media that portray us … Continue reading AAW: Asexual Activists & Advocates

AAW: Asexual Anthems

Oct 21, 2019Oct 20, 2019 ~ Ellen ~ 2 Comments

It might be Monday, but it's also Ace Week, so it's time to get HYPED. And there's nothing quite like a good playlist to get you in the mood (for raising awareness). To help keep the party going all week long, I've scoured Spotify for the best asexual playlists out there. So get those headphones … Continue reading AAW: Asexual Anthems

AAW: Asexual Awareness Week

Oct 20, 2019Oct 19, 2019 ~ Ellen ~ 10 Comments

Today marks the start of Asexual Awareness Week 2019, also known as AAW or Ace Week. As some of you may know, I came out as ace earlier this year, so I'm going to actually put some effort into AAW this year! 'Asexual' is a label I have identified with on and off for about … Continue reading AAW: Asexual Awareness Week

Today is the first ever #InternationalAsexualityDay! I thought I would show off my ace pride by putting together some of my favourite pins and badges. 🖤💜 If you are anywhere on the asexual spectrum, then this day is for you! Eat some cake and celebrate your fabulous self 💜 I am so grateful to @iadofficial, @theyasminbenoit, and @aven.pt (and anyone else involved) for all the hard work that they have done to put this day together and bring so much awareness, celebration, and awesomeness to our community over the years! You are all amazing ✨
🌸 Spring is finally here! 🌸 Having some fun in the sun with my Ebisu sandals by @irregularchoice ✨ I love all the little details on these shoes!
Easter egg cheesecakes by @jos.bakes_ 🤤 Literally one of the best things I've ever eaten. Yumyumyummmm🧁✨
Happy Halloween y'all! 🎃🦇👻
Have you backed @melikaj93 's Kickstarter yet? No?! What the heck have you been doing for the last month?? Go back it! There are only 26 hours left! I chose the "Pins for Days" reward because it is well known that I am a sucker for enamel pins. Get this adorable Muslim gamer girl mascot IN PIN FORM! And maybe pick up a jumper from her Teespring while you're at it 😜 This is not a sponsored post, I just think Melika is cool ✌️
If you really loved me, you'd let me eat your brains 🧠 Swipe for scares 🧟‍♀️
