Superhero Separation: Read it here

Okay, as many of you know, I have written stories before that have appeared on Hubpages. I hope you liked Dungeon Crackers, and I have a new one for you called Superhero Separation.

I hope you like this one. I will warn you, it was painful to write. Even though it is about one of my favorite subjects, superheroes, it is also about divorce.

It is not necessarily pretty, but it is pretty informative. Anyway, here it is:

Superhero Separation, Chapter 1: The Troubles Begin

Superhero Separation, Chapter 2: The Television Broadcast

Superhero Separation, Chapter 3: The Formal Announcement

Superhero Separation, Chapter 4: Prison Break-in

Superhero Separation, Chapter 5: Katrina’s Plan

Superhero Separation, Chapter 6: After the Breakout

Superhero Separation, Chapter 7: Battle at the North Pole

Superhero Separation, Chapter 8: In the Giant Drill

Superhero Separation, Chapter 9: The End of My World
