I have a beautiful painting of Superman from artist Alex Ross. Blue reflects off his face as he stares downward in a close-up. After a moment you realize, he is looking down on Earth, watching over.
As authors, which Superman are we? Seems there are two distinct roles the author-as-Superman plays.
Are we the omniscient author? Watching over our creations? Shaping and capturing their stories? Personally, this does not work for me. Too arrogant and God-like. I may control the details or descriptions, but I am the.
I would rather say my Superman role is protector, guarding the lives, adventures, and tragedies of their journey.
Which are you? Or perhaps a completely different interpretation?
