--Who is the character in your latest WiP most likely to get away with murder?
Of course, with our WiPs it's moderately likely to be someone who already HAS gotten away with murder! Wait, can you say that Lex Luthor has "gotten away with murder" when Superman literally always catches him? Obviously if he were to murder someone (not that he would) Clark would be very likely to get away with it, as a body thrown into the sun doesn't leave much evidence behind...
I've been getting some good progress made this week! Maybe I have my mojo back. Neither of my current protagonists is very likely to get away with murder; they're not dumb people, but I think they lack the planning and ruthlessness to cover their tracks. How are your characters?
