A concept that has wormed its way into my writing queue:
He’s a cocksure up-and-coming detective who’s been sent to a specific department to find out what has THAT area’s cold-case squad solving old crimes at a higher rate than anyone else.
She’s a POC on the ASD spectrum who builds incredibly detailed models of ancient crime scenes that no longer exist in the real world. [See the works of Francis Glessner Lee to know what I’m talking about]
They fight crime.
But first… HE has to learn that ASD is not like the TV typical white asshole-guy-who-gets-away-with-it-because-genius, and learn how to work WITH her instead of forcing her to do things the nypical way.
I just want an ASD heroine who doesn’t fit the bog-standard TV mould of what ASD is, and a nypical work partner [THERE WILL NEVER BE SEXUAL TENSION!] who has a learning curve about the world in which she lives. So I’m going to write it. Eventually.
Thoughts? Wants? Desires? I’m listening.
