superhero_musesOh look, I found a new list of writing questions! Let's give them a try and apply them to whatever you're currently working on!
--What inspired you to write your current WiP the way you are?
That's a bit vague, but let's see... My biggest current WiP is the superhero/wrestling fusion, which came about because I was watching wrestling and started drawing parallels between that and superheroes (the good v. evil narratives; the cyclical nature of the stories; the private-public identity split). Then I started finding parallels between the actual stories (major deaths or disasters; similar characters) and it just kind of grew from there.
I would love to hear about your WiPs in comments--not just superhero stories but anything!

Oooh, I like the way your story crystallized out from the characters you wanted to write! It sounds very organic.
