 --If you could have any fictional character as your writing mentor, who would it be?

Sticking mostly to comic books, I think Clark would be a great writing mentor! He's obviously really good at it, he's got a gift for finding the humanity in any collection of facts, and I think he'd be very patient and encouraging. I love Lois but I feel like she might be a little too sharp with the concrit for me sometimes. Maybe Lois and Clark as a team would be perfect?

How's your writing going? I wrote the first few paragraphs of the last chapter of the book today and I'm really hoping to be done by the end of the weekend! (Though then I must write an afterword and re-write the first chapter, so I can't rest TOO easy). But I know the ending and I'm going to feel so emotional to finally get to it...

I think you're right about Lois. Keep her concrit away! 😆

Ha, I do think Clark is the perfect choice. He's sweet, patient and talented.

I'm guessing Alfred might be a good choice, too. I'm sure he has given all his boys good tips on writing. 📝

Non-comics? John Watson could teach something. Working with Sherlock Holmes would give him some keen insights as to narrative and detail. 🕵️‍♂️

Ooooooh, Alfred is also a very good choice! I bet he's done a lot of tutoring in general.
