Writing about my own culture is difficult for the same reason. 😂 Because of white Western audiences. I'll write it anyway.

@AuthorHFerry When I edit, I just gently tell the author if some audiences could be offended, but if that audience is not your intended audience, then it kinda doesnt matter.
@guerrero_ramey My problem is, white Western readers ARE my main audience. I want to show them a glimpse of life in my country. But it's like walking on a tightrope, between angering them and being disloyal to to what I want to represent.
@AuthorHFerry If you ever need an editor who values that style, reach out. I'm white, but I was raised in another culture, so I understand that there are more sets of rules than just "White America" and can help navigation of this.
@guerrero_ramey Thank you! I am actually looking for a developmental editor for my book Thirteen.
@JazzAuthor @guerrero_ramey Nope, already working with R. 😊
