    Terry Pratchett’s on Tolkien’s influence on fantasy:J.R.R. Tolkien has become a sort of mountain, appearing in all subsequent fantasy in the way that Mt. Fuji appears so often in Japanese prints. Sometimes it’s big and up close. Sometimes it’s a shape on the horizon. Sometimes it’s not there at all, which means that the artist either has made a deliberate decision against the mountain, which is interesting in itself, or is in fact standing on Mt. Fuji.#ttrpg #discworld #pratchett #books

    Question for the #WritingCommunity and also for readers. Would be especially grateful to hear from non-white folk.My current WIP is an industrial fantasy and set in a city where β€œwhite” people are a minority. The vast majority of the characters have brown skin. None of the cultural and ethnic tensions in the novel β€” of which there are many β€” have anything to do with skin colour. None of the β€œraces” or cultures can be mapped onto Earth versions.I did this because I hate β€œwhite-as-default” in fantasy and in general, because it makes sense with the history of this world, and because while I am writing about cultural and religious conflict, I’m doing it from the perspective of someone from Northern Ireland, where skin colour has nothing to do with the traditional sectarian tensions. However, I myself am pretty obviously white.Obviously nobody can tell if I’m being problematic from one post, but I worry anyway. So: if anyone has any thoughts they think I should hear I would be beyond grateful.
