You know, I'd really love it if professional authors (and, hell, fanfic authors) took an interest in "those coloured people" on the Stargates - both SG1 and Atlantis. I haven't met a professional author yet who was interested in Teal'c, Teyla, or Ronon as anything other than sex fodder or background.

And, no, underdeveloped does not mean uninteresting.

And yes, I know the term "coloured" is an insult in the US. I'm using it deliberately to describe the mindset I see in professional (and fanfic) authors: "only the pretty white people count."

To tell you true, I'm freaking tired of it.

Amen. I'd love to see more Teal'c, Teyla and Ronon centric stuff around. I occationally stumble across some freaking brilliant pieces, but not very often.
