“I just don’t see how non-white characters would fit into my book. All the characters in my head are white.”
I see this excuse as a crisis of imagination. Particularly if you’re writing SF, often set in a future when anything can change. When everything can be different than it is now. We’ve already seen our first black president. We’ve seen women in ever more powerful roles. Gays and lesbians are coming out in nearly every corner of society, and universal marriage equality is becoming more and more imaginable.
You can’t imagine a black genetic engineer as your main character? An Hispanic lesbian piloting a starship? Then your imagination needs some revamping. You need to start thinking outside the box. Open up your corner of the world to more possibilities.

A too-blurry picture of Charlie I wished I could use and a few other screenshots of Burn I wanted to include for my present day Geiszler & Gottlieb photoset
23 year old Newt and 24 year old Hermann are the cutest babies, you know it’s true
I’m not a misandrist, but I just don’t think boys are as interested in gaming as women are. I mean, women keep playing despite the vast majority of games being explicitly targeted towards boys and only boys, we’re obviously in it for the games...
