#PennedPossibilities 1138: Tell us about a time your MC forged their own path.
After Bolt lost her fear of flying at age 10 (roughly equivalent of a kid fearing walking at that age), she dove full speed into precision flying. Her eventual prowess earned her the right to captain her school's flight and track team (all male except for her) to a championship. It all ended when she was 17 when poor choices put her life into a tailspin. For a day angel, precision flight is never a bad skill to learn but her sport was about as useful professionally as track and field is for us. It did ensure she had plenty of boyfriends and plenty of fond memories ruling her own teenage domain.

#PennedPossibilities 1137: Do you have an FMC, MMC, other gender MC, or more than one MC?
I have multiple main characters in all my books, all my aliens are intersex, and, in my latest WIP, the gender of one character is not identified by pronoun or otherwise.

#PennedPossibilities 1137: Do you have an FMC, MMC, other gender MC, or more than one MC?
Typically, I have a single MC, inevitably an FMC because I've until recently had little confidence (or success) writing male characters. Masculinity confuses me. I find it hard to write men convincingly.
Here's the score for the Reluctance Series started and planned stories.
- Reluctant (Courier for the Mob) WIP: FMC
- Reluctant Moon: FMC and MMC
- Reluctant Accomplice: FMC
- Reluctant Fighter: FMC
- Reluctant Consort: MMC and FMC, with the MMC being gay since it is a gay romance story.
Two other recent stories:
- Mars Needed Women: FMC and secondary minor FMC
- Inklings: FMC

#PennedPossibilities 1137: Do you have an FMC, MMC, other gender MC, or more than one MC?
I guess I err on the side of female. Current book has a female MC, but I have written a book with a male MC and several with multiple mixed MCs. And three of my books have no MC at all.

#PennedPossibilities 1136: MC POV: A time you felt far from home was…
All of my human characters are 16 light years from home except for the two born on Chara IV.

#PennedPossibilities 1136 — MC POV: A time you felt far from home was…
Each time something disruptive happens that reminds me I ran away from the security and safety my mother and uncle provided. Why? Pride. Stupid retribution that in the end I would pay for.
For instance?
When I realized I'd been framed for a crime, by the mob. When I let photos I took end up on the front pages of the newspaper, then became famous for what I still consider hobby self-gratification photography. Each time, I knew my life had changed, that what tenuous control of my life I flattered myself as having—it had evaporated like sweat on a hot dry day.
