How to Write Characters of Color Without Using Stereotypes
Creating characters that belong to a different racial group than you are can be down-right difficult. In response to that apprehension I often see authors avoid it, they take the easy way out and you don't describe them at all, but is that what's best?

Diverse Writing Prompt Group
This group is designed for any fiction writer looking to practice writing diversely without stereotypes or tokenism. You don’t have to be a particular identity or write a specific genre in order to join this group.
The prompts are designed to spark creativity and help members practice writing outside their identities with guidance and support from a sensitivity reader. Work is not to be critiqued.
The group meets virtually for 75 minutes, once a week for five weeks. At each meeting members will typically have two twenty minute rounds to write. Each round is followed by an optional opportunity to share.
Cost: $35
