superhero_musesWhat is your most recent POV character’s most noticeable physical attribute?
Oh, we're back to Kevin Owens just in time! Man, I dunno... seen in the wild in civilian clothes Kevin is a pretty normal schlub, I have to confess. I think he works pretty hard at being unassuming when he's not at work destroying people. Lately it would probably be his arms, I think he's been working out more and he's starting to have pretty muscular arms; if he were wearing something sleeveless I think that would catch the eye.
Writing is slow and painful still! The nonfiction is very involving (I'm writing a history of two wrestlers' career together, which is complicated because it's in part a history the real people and in part a history of their characters' story. Which means the latter half is basically fiction, and someone described it complimentarily as "fan fiction" and I kind of froze up--I think I use a lot of the same tropes and images that appear in my fic about the characters, but I had hoped it wasn't THAT obvious!) but it's still chewing up a lot of energy. I probably need to cut back to once a month instead of every other week, but I want to wait until I finish this part of the history first, which will happen in June if all goes well. I hope things are going smoothly for you too!
