Yes, I have writtens some racial change stories, mainly in fantasy settings where a particular skin color is admired and the change is from white to black, or from light skinned to far darker skinned, as this reflects my own tastes. I also did a story in which a white woman becomes Chinese, because I had seen two women in a cinema and liked the idea of one stepping into the other's shoes, especially as the Chinese woman was dressed head to toe in shiny PVC clothes and the white woman was in a dull blouse and long skirt. If they had been dressed the other way round, the change would probably have been that way round, the change and the clothes were what excited me.

I always find excitement in change and transformation, though I do not like sex change, I know some people do and many of my stories have a sexual orientation change. I think it is radical to change someone's ethnic appearance, especially if this is something that is such an anathema to them. The racism comes in if you think Black people are naturally more sexually active or that Asians are naturally more subservient, and it says a lot about your own attitudes. However, admiring a particular appearance and skin tone is not wrong, and change can be exciting. When I lost all my hair, I wished I was black as black men look much cooler when bald, but I had no sense my sexual appetite or tastes would change. I think white people find it difficult to imagine themselves as any other race, but there have been many people of different ethnic backgrounds who wish they were treated equally and so welcome such a change, a close friend of mine has expressed such desires, so I think white to other ethnic groups has a stronger 'taboo', hence excitement than other changes.
