Howdy!

As gingerwall said, the primary focus of this community is to help writers with their characters of color/non-white characters. With that said, there may be people who'd like to help you with beta reading (I'm helping another writer with their story at the moment).

With regards to the Twilight series and Native representation, there's been quite a bit written about the subject. You might want to take a look at some of these articles as you work on your story (again, as gingerwall said, you can improve the source material if you're feeling daring):

- (Ig)Noble savages in need of vampire civilization
- Edward’s mind versus Jacob’s body, or, Twilight as a Colonial Text
- Monstrous Musings: The Colonial Gaze of Stephenie Meyer and the Resulting Representation of Indigenous Peoples as Monstrous
- Twilight Profits and the Quileute People

There's also twilight_ndnz, an LJ community for Native fans of Twilight-this might be a good place for you to watch and read the discussions about what's good and bad about the series.

I'm still trying to figure out how to get more people in this community and make it more active, so my apologies. I hope the comments so far help.
