I can't believe it--The Ringer published my nonfiction! I post the link only because I don't believe it's true still, not because I expect any of you to read 4000 words of wrestling jargon:

(They haven't paid me yet although they said they would, and I don't know how freelance writing gets compensated. This is causing me some anxiety, but I don't need the money, so... okay).

On to the question of the week:

--What bad habits does your latest POV character have?

Hmmm, my female Clark doesn't have many bad "habits," per se: no drinking, smoking, etc. I suppose she can be a bit judgy of what she calls "fripperies" like makeup and heels, and of women who use them!

I hope your writing is going well and you're enjoying it!

おめでとう～ on getting the article published! I hope you get your compensation soon; even if you don't need it, it's only fair they pay you after saying they would.

Congrats! That's fantastic news! :)

Bad habits of my latest POV character? Probably not knowing when to stop pushing. Smallville Lex has a tendency to probe into people's business (mainly Clark's) where, frankly, it isn't his business. Just because he has a burning need to know doesn't mean he's allowed to delve into other people's secrets. In my current story, he's keeping that part of him tamped down, though it isn't always easy! :)

P.S. Typical about the payment situation, eh? *smh*
