Including more non-Caucasian characters is one I'm working on myself. I have to think about it a little more actively, and I always worry more that I'm going to fuck it up, but hey, them's the breaks. I'd rather try and fuck up and learn from the experience than play it safe and have an all-white cast.
Yeah, I'm also on lkh_lashouts because, um, well the same reason you listed, and also, I have a really bad case of trainwreck syndrome (can't look away!). *whistles*
Seanan's post about GBLT characters and some of the comments is actually what spurred this rant :) I love her work. I need to try and pick up the Toby books again, but I ADORED Discount Armageddon and can't wait for the next one. (Grabby hands! Grabby hands!)
