You were Lightning Lad, The Flash, and Sgt. Flash. What exactly attracts you to characters who "flash"? (PS. My son LOVED Jay Garrick/Flash in Batman:TB&TB. Thanks for such a cool performance!)

Oh, man, YES!!! I am definitely my own worst critic.

And that's a good thing. Because the reality is, there is no perfect manuscript, no perfect work, and even the final version, after it has been polished and worked over and looked at with dozens of eyes, will still have flaws. So if you don't see the imperfections in your own work (especially your first draft) then you're crazy.

The key is to not let your self-criticism keep you from completing your work. NEVER revise while you're writing. Write the book, then start fixing it. That's the only way you'll ever actually complete something.

(lol, I'm actually a fan of both, so that was sort of a joke. However, because OP's got to deliver, here you go)
* Superman was the first superhero. Ever.
* Superman is, still, the MOST recognized superhero worldwide.
* There's something incredibly relatable about Superman, the orphan immigrant forced to hide his true identity for fear of being rejected. Billionaire playboy with a narcissistic vendetta against crime isn't nearly so.
* Superman stories can be enjoyed by any age, whereas Batman has to be watered down for younger kids (okay, that one's a stretch, but I'm sticking with it).
* And, finally, Superman could DESTROY Batman in a microsecond. Batman would have to go dig through his cave and find his kryptonite ring to even START to hurt Superman.

Again, all in good fun. I love both heroes. But I got to be loyal to my /r/Superman roots.

It took 25 years for me to get to the point where I was skilled enough as a writer, to find an idea that worked and that was interesting enough for me to want to write it, to then write the book, and to find an agent and publisher willing to take the risk. I'm so impressed with young writers who are barely 20 (or younger) and are knocking it out of the park. I was not there yet when I was that age.

What are you binge watching, if anything, on Netflix?
