Cakes Made Like A Pool Table

Podmienili Tusk alien and nothing happened ...

today I came by chance on an old but still very interesting post, which appeared during the period when he was a so-called fandom. "Race! Fail" sharply and discussed on how to write about characters who are not white or do not share with readers their target Western culture. This entry is mostly about this topic, but rather about how pervasive and interwoven in all our cultural heritage are the values of the west, and how hard it is to free ourselves from looking through the lens of our own ideas about how "all" people feel and behave . Very interesting entry, branding actually all of them together. Even if you do not agree with it, it is still worth reading (in my opinion). You can read about them here: "I Did not Dream of Dragons. "

But actually, I am not of this essay, but about this, what I thought when I read his little piece, in which the author described how as a teenager she wanted to write a fantasy novel, and since all the fantasy books they read were in English, is living his life in India, and certainly not being British, and so she began writing her novel with characters named Sally and Peter, because otherwise it is just in my head did not fall. I immediately fell her novel because Indian realities nohow not want to bend to the pattern of Western fantasy.

I thought that too I have a mental block sometimes that when I try to imagine some fantasy, especially urban fantasy, where there are actual realities of this present time more or less, set in Poland, I'm starting to have weird problems Type: but what they just begin to conquer the world from the Polish? I understand from the U.S., Great Britain or something pasi, Tokyo in danger of a natural thing, but Warsaw as a scene of apocalypse now I do not play as anything but a grotesque and a parody and is probably very sad, in a sense. Or, for example, reflect on the story in the style of "evil organization / Dark wizards / anyone out there decides to take power in the country" and start thinking about how they podmieniają politykówiw all, then I am reminded of who governs us and I conclude that I can not even see the tension there, and so 80% of members would not have noticed anything, and actually have married the shadowy organization we can only be good, because it's not that some experts and our husbands (wives? lady? benefactress?) state govern ...

guess I read too little Polish things. Because I'm sure that some Polish urban fantasy, and there is something evil wants to destroy Poland and the world, and somehow someone wrote, is not it? Does anyone who reads these things I could tell whether the villains are in these Polish cases the same motives as usual, if anyone attempts to explain this Polishness?

And with things not related, as a perpetually delayed, only now I listen to over and over again, "Brothers," The Blue Keys "Contry" Vampire Weekend. I know, right down.
