Remember this? [Link to Original Post] Well, now it has a Google Docs file for all the ideas I’m pouring into this novel/series.

I’m calling it Murder Dollhouse. And it may go on for some time.

The first novel will be less about the cold case and more about the alleged hero’s journey towards treating the neurodiverse like actual people. Others? I don’t even know yet. As I say in the document, it all depends on interest from you, my dear readers.

Fuck, I haven’t even named anyone yet.

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.
