Greetings, everyone.
I would like to make this announcement addressing new information I have collected from reading a plethora of books and comments on them.
I would like a favour of all of you if possible (you do not need to do this if you do not want to, for I will try my hardest to find these myself when I have the time for it).
Would it be alright if by chance you are reading one of my books to point out if (Y/n) is blushing or if I have ever mentioned a specific skin tone?
I would like to be as inclusive as I can without offending anyone as I am not fully educated enough to make a proper book or anything for the matter solely focusing on POC.
I apologize if anyone finds what I am saying to be rude in any way so if desired, I can remove this announcement.
My overall goal with what I am writing is to include everyone so please, do not be afraid to leave a comment on something I have written that you do not agree with.
In addition, I would like to in the future write a (Y/n) who is male.
I feel as though since I am only writing (Y/n) as a female, it would be exclusive to those who use the pronouns he/him or they/them.
As someone who prefers reading “x readers” where the (Y/n) is male, I would like to try it out myself.
Once again, I am by no means trying to exclude or include certain people. I am just too young to understand and create a clear picture of how to write for POC.
I apologize and look forward to seeing if anyone replies.
