maderrBut I don't care. I do not like being called racist, I do not like seeing my sister called racist, and I wholly resent the idea that because I'm white I am by default racist and have no ethnicity, culture, and whatever all else of my own. Apparently because I'm white, I'm exactly like all the other white people around the world.
The source of my ire is here
In light of all this, Sammikins says the reason I can't write is the utter lack of diversity of my stories. Too many white people. She suggests writing something ethnic to cleanse my spirit.
I asked if Sandstorm smut qualified as ethnic. She says yes, but I have to include lots more races.
Ryokai!

Oh lord could I go on about women in fiction. But I tend to let it slide, because that's a war no one will ever win, I feel.
