Fiction Closed

Stories must by science fiction in genre and in some way connected to the theme of space, but you are welcome to interpret that theme as broadly as you wish.
Stories must feature at least one asexual and/or aromantic character in a prominent role. This is inclusive of related identities within the wider asexual spectrum such as demi-sexual, demi-romantic, grey-ace. While we are primarily looking for human representation, we will consider stories with non-human (e.g. alien, robot, sentient computer, etc.) aromantic or asexual characters if the quality of the story is able to catch our attention
