mithen--Is your current PoV character more optimistic or pessimistic?
Clark Joseph Kent, sunny farmgirl with a heart of gold and boundless faith in humanity? Hmmm...
Though more seriously, I've always felt like Clark has a definite pessimist's streak under all the cheer, and Bruce has a hidden optimistic tendency under the gloom. It's what keeps both of them going: Clark's pessimistic streak keeps him grounded and realistic, while Bruce's secret optimism keeps him from wallowing in nihilism.
I got a few paragraphs written this week and am going to buckle down and write a few more right now, as a matter of fact! Last time I sat down to write I got distracted by looking for a name for an OC, which is always a huge time-sink for me. She's got like three lines! Pick a name and move on!
