Hey guys! I feel like I've been asking a lot of writing questions lately so I hope someone benefits from them besides me.
My question today is how do you introduce a characters ethnicity without just coming out and saying it? One of the characters in my book has Nigerian and Swiss father and her mother is English. It's already known that she's British (someone tells her to her stop saying 'shag' because she hasn't lived in England for the past 9 years) and I want to come up with a clever way to say her father's Nigerian.
I'm actually partially basing this character on a real person, Ashley Madekwe. My character looks similar to her so I've included a picture.
Thanks in advance for your help!
