Re: Writing characters of color while showing not telling and not pissing people off

(Anonymous) 2013-11-17 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
You could describe him based on the characters he's standing next to? Like, a female character touches his arm and her hand is "startlingly pale/dark against his skin" or something similar. You don't have to resort to food stuff (because you're right, that annoys some people big time) but there aren't many ways to establish half black half white in particular without resorting to telling, or mentioning his parents or something.
