As always, the story is beautifully done. Elegant in it's simplicity, but packing the emotional punch to stagger the reader. Poor Clark really didn't think through how Superman might be received, huh? He's so humble it never crossed his mind. I love it!

Good thing he was raised right, or it might have gone to his head. Well done! Nothing spoils a good story like the arrival of an eye witness. --Mark Twain

Morgana A writer's job is to think of new plots and create characters who stay with you long after the final page has been read. If that mission is accomplished than we have done what we set out to do, which is to entertain and hopefully educate.

Lynn: it wasn't a deliberate sequel but you're right, it does feel like one! Maybe we should collaborate and write the next one in the sequence Cuidadora: thanks! DC:it's a gift :P Glad you liked it! Mouse: yes, he was definitely lucky to have Martha and Jonathon. Who knows how he would've turned out otherwise? Carrie: yup! Get used to being adored, Clark... Morgana: he's definitely taken on a huge burden. Good thing he's such a strong person (mentally, not just physically) Queenie: I know right? One thing's for certain, I don't think I'd like to be Superman. Jackie: vulnerable Clark is fun to write Thanks everyone!

Great job! ~ Folc4evernaday Jodi Picoult - You might not write well every day, but you can always edit a bad page. You can't edit a blank page. https://loisclarktribute.com Subscribe on YouTube

Quote I wasn’t expecting the publicity storm that has come along with Superman’s debut. I wasn’t expecting the tidal wave of accolades, the outpouring of support… the groupies. Interesting how the groupies are singled out Quote Everywhere I turn, someone is expecting more from me. I’ll just go ahead and remove ‘from’ from the sentence, if that’s all right? Works better with the ‘groupies’ reference from above. Quote The world expects me- needs me- to be something more. And I don’t know if I’m ready for that.
