It's a bit challenging to describe the characters specific and distinctive features when I'm writing in a fantasy set story, in a totally invented world.
          The notion of ethnicity as we know it doesn't exist there, or is completly different. And how to make sure my readers won't whitewash my characters or misread their described features is a big concern of mine. As a latina woman of color myself, I do care about being represented accordingly.
          So I thought I'd specify all of my characters's ethnicity, book by book. What do you guys think?

Of course you guys are free to let your imagination guide you through the magical and intricate proccess of picturing the characters as you read the books, as long as you keep in mind their ethnicity and don't whitewash them. Much love to you all.

Not in the books exactly, but in a separate post here and link it at the end of the chapters.

I'm so sorry for being away, I needed to withdrawl a bit from Wattpad to care for my own mental health.
          But I'm back to writing now and am currently working on The Deadly Artifacts's second chapter and The Crimson Court's sixth one.
          For my lovely The Crimson Court readers, let me give you a clue of whose POV you're going to be reading next:
          1. She's a badass princess.
          2. A red-born.
          3. Is also a dragonrider.

Unfortunately I've been running out of internet it's been a couple months and my laptop broke, so I had to move to my aunt's house to get wifi and all but I'm still in need of a computer to write the fifth chapter.  I can't do it through my phone. 
          
          I'm so sorry if I made you guys wait for an update. It breaks my heart that I can't write it now. I really want to, believe me when I tell you that I miss the characters like they were my own children. But bear with me because soon enough I'll start writing again when it's all settled here. Cross your fingers for me and wish me luck.
