Welcome back to Romance Writers Weekly, where you never know what to expect from our authors J This week Susan Scott Shelley http://www.susanscottshelley.com/#!blog/c1cod has put forth an interesting twist to our hop. She wants to know, “You’ve been gifted with a super power. Which would you choose? Why? Hmmmm, let’s see what I come up with, shall we???
A super power, would I want to fly? Maybe, that would be cool, flying overhead, seeing the world unaltered by say the inside of a plane. Nah, I don’t think I would want that super power.
The ability to become invisible. Hey, that could be interesting. You could sneak in and be that fly on the wall. But the downside, there are truly things we should not hear and with this super power I am sure one would end up hearing things about themselves that would sting a bit.
I already delve into reading the future via my tarot cards. So I wouldn’t consider this a super power seeing as it is an everyday part of life for me anyway, and I can promise no super powers are necessary there.
Strength, now that might be something that would be nice. But with my luck the powers that be would take this as a sign for inner strength, and frankly, I’m getting really tired of them testing and trusting me with so much of this aspect of life.
Then I pondered on this question some more and realized, hey, you’re an author, a wife, a mom, a grandmother, ect. You already have a super power. Balance. Let’s face it, most people do a balancing act with life, trying to fit in everything from work to play to sleep. If that in itself isn’t a super power I don’t know what a super power could be.
I often tease about putting on different hats, one day I plan to have a hat for every aspect of life I try to balance, then I can tell people when they walk in my door, “Nope, can’t you see the hat on my head? It’s not the mom hat right now, it’s the author hat. Please come back when I change hats.” Of course the grandma hat will always be close at hand for emergencies of course J
So I guess you could say, I’m good with just being me. No super powers necessary, because frankly, with my personality I would probably abuse the power LOL.
