Well, thanks to some very good help I should be submitting my Little Red Riding Hood spoof later this week. I don't know that it's what they want, but they say they take all genres as long as the stories are flash fiction - 500 to 1,000 words.
Meanwhile, I have begun a new hero story. Only don't look for it on the Legion Blog. I haven't completely abandoned it, but this new story doesn't really fit that mold.
The story I'm working on should be less silly. I intend to focus more on character than abilities. Who is this hero? Why is she a hero? What is it costing her to be a hero?
There is nothing wrong with a basic story about heroes and villains, but sometimes it's good to know more about a character. Helps the reader identify.

It's good to see you stuck into your writing again.
Thanks. I just realized today is a school holiday and I don't have it to myself after all. Pity.
But I like having him around all the same.
I hope all goes well with the submission.
Thanks. Their guidelines indicate the wait could be four to eight weeks, I believe. So it could be a while before I know.
