Popular media is having a lack of asexual characters. Usually, if there is a character, it is full of stereotypes. Asexuals are depicted as cold, mindless, killers and villains if they get any representation. Or they are used as a prop as foodie friends like Jugheads in Archies comic series. I have written asexual characters in my first book, Marriage Of Convenience which has drawn attention to many people on how to write asexual characters.

lol I am doing number 2 in one story, but it has two other asexuals who aren't antagonists as well. I would still give this advice to allos writing asexual characters in any case. And the other points are great too, especially not making their sexuality the focal point of the character.
