Finding betas can be a really difficult job. I am always envious of people with a steady beta relationship, but then again, I think it's good to be able to switch around depending on what you're looking for.
Still, I will take trying and failing over not trying any day of the week. I'd rather season my fic with different races and cultures and genders and disabilities and risk getting them wrong than write safe all white WASPy stories that don't reflect the world I live in.
I think this is an excellent point. And a brave one. Bravo and bravo for being willing to learn if you make a mistake.
