If you could have any three superpowers, what would they be?
Okay, it’s time to come clean. At some point in your life you’ve wondered what it would be like to have superpowers. Maybe it was during your last paranormal read, or it could have been when you were watching Superman. Not to worry. It happens. There’s just something so fascinating about crazy powers that captures the imagination.
While writing The Soul’s Mark Series, I spent many hours thinking about superpowers, and I have to admit, it was fun imagining how life would be if I developed my own set of superpowers. It took awhile, but I’ve finally narrowed it down to my top three.
Superhuman Speed
Picture never being late again. I’m always running late so being super fast would definitely be on my list, although I bet it wouldn’t help. I’d probably procrastinate and still end up late.
Persuasion
With the power of mind control, basically, you could do anything you wanted. You could persuade your teachers to give you straight A’s, get your dream job, get out of that speeding ticket. The possibilities are endless. It would be awesome. I’m pretty sure I would use it to get my husband to do all the cooking and cleaning.
Super Healing
What if you had the power to heal? You could get rid of all those little injuries like paper cuts, because, well, they hurt! (I can’t even begin to count how many I got while writing these books.) But you could also help ease the pain of others. Picture being able to cure cancer or Alzheimer’s. Now that would be amazing.
What would you guys choose?

Holy Moly! That's a lot of superpowers to come up with. You must have had a blast with it. :)
Oh, and I completely agree, stretchy arms would be hilarious.
But if I had to choose just three, I'd go with:
1. Flying! Who hasn't dreamed of flying?
2. Teleporting! Although flying is cool, it still can't get you to the other side of the world in the blink of an eye ;)
3. Stretchy arms! It would just be hilarious :P
