Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Feb. 9, 2019
Having discussed a general approach to writing characters with mental disorders (with a lot of thoughtful comments by you further enriching what I had to say!) it's only right that we wrap up this very quick analysis with an example of a story that properly portrays them.

Quackcast 353 - Beautycast
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Dec. 19, 2017 LISTEN!
