And you put Clark at the Daily Oklahoman? Interesting. Some of the folks I've known in Oklahoma have called that paper the Daily Disappointment, although it never had a writer with skill Clark has. OKC is a small-market area with large-market aspirations that make it cosmopolitan without making it too crowded.
I'm writing what I know
As a lifelong Okie, I can speak more about this area of the world than I can anywhere else.
(Except for the constant construction downtown. I don't think they'll ever finish.)
That and the construction on I-44. It seems like those are going to be never-ending projects...
On a separate and possibly unrelated note, I wonder where and how Clark got the legal ID for Kallen Ellis. The paper couldn't have hired him as an employee without proof of who he claimed to be, not without the W2 and I-9 documents (Social Security number plus driver's license or other ID) they'd have to file. It doesn't matter that much for this story, but my detailed brain came up with the question and I couldn't answer it so Brain is frowning a little. But not too sharply. Keep up the good work and don't stop any time soon!
It is driving my little OCD brain a bit nutty as well, but I haven't found a good way to integrate it without seeming forced. We'll see if I can come up with something
So Lois only recognized him as Superman. But what about Clark? How was his disappearance explained? Didn't Lois put two and two together?
These are all outstanding questions. I believe you will be getting some answers soon.
This was an unexpected turn. I would have guessed that she'd recognized Clark - the writer. Instead she's still only seeing Superman. I guess they're both blind in their own way.
I think that is a wonderful way to say that.
Next chapter coming soon!
