I can't write Lex Luthor.
I've never been able to. It's as if I have a tin ear where his character is concerned. So, try as I might to insert him into a fic, I've never pulled it off. I'm sorry to say I'm stricken with Lex Luthor Specific Writer's Block. I have no idea why.
I was lamenting this to another writer- who, exactly, I can't remember- and that writer had a similiar affliction, only it was Martha Block.
Which got me wondering if others are suffering silently, unable to write certain characters, not knowing why, and thinking they're alone in their difficulty...<sniff>
Who can't you write? And why not, do you think?
And on the flip side, who comes really easily? Does exactly as you ask and sounds precisely how they should?
And those of you who can write them all, don't be afraid to speak up and say so. (I have my suspicions, anyway.) If no character eludes your writer's lasso, then what's your secret? I want to know!
CC- who thanks one and all for any answers that come her way. I do award bonus points rather freely... just saying.
