Heads up, workshop announcement
United's overnight flight 7113 from Tokyo to L.A. was engulfed in a mysterious bright blue light while crossing the open Pacific. The seemingly harmless flash lasted for eight seconds and the plane landed uneventfully in Los Angeles. Four days later many of the passengers experienced... changes.
The coming year was to be filled with Gods and Monsters. These are their stories.

I'll add my $.01 to that thought. FISS is why I'm here.

But if you're taking suggestions:
1. "A Day at the Beach." The superwoman might be a lifeguard, a volleyball player, a swimsuit model on a photoshoot, or just a girl enjoying a day off.
2. "Princess Power." Imagine a Disney princess with super-powers. I've written a couple of chapters of a super Rapunzel story, and a while ago Woodclaw wrote a terrific story about a super Aurora that blended the Disney cartoon with darker elements from European folklore -- one of my favorites. Let's see what our writers might do with Cinderella, Ariel, Jasmine, Belle ...
3. "Supergirl in Training." A novice supergirl is learning how to use her powers, perhaps under the guidance of an experienced super-heroine. Or the story might focus on an academy or boot camp for supergirls.
4. "Who Wants to Be a Superheroine?" For a "reality" TV show, a group of women are given temporary super-powers and make their way through a series of competitions. One or more of them are eliminated at the end of each round. Last one standing gets permanent super-powers. Write an episode of the show.
I really like the idea of number 4 there! Inspiring! Not up to me tho - maybe one day. ..

As mentioned before my concern was the strong focus of FISS of alien descent here. Kryptonians specifically. I don't have a problem with FISS but I can imagine there is equal resistance about not using Kryptonians here as it is about avoiding the FISS powerset.
