Beth: Well, we will have to see about Ultrawoman.
Fauve: I’m glad that this approach worked. I really struggled with the gap.
By the way, is it Ultra Woman or Ultrawoman? I wrote it as Ultra Woman but I think I’ve seen it both ways.
Actually, when I was writing this section, I had the most fun with Martha. When I decided that Ch. 8 would be as seen from her perspective, I got thinking about who she was. When I thought enough about it I developed this picture of Martha as essentially Lois who was in a different time and place and who ended up on an unexpected life-path. I just can't escape the feeling that, had Martha grown up in Metropolis, she might have been very much like Lois.
