Thanks Turwaithiel! :-) I'm trying my best!

Elenya, we would really love to have you in the contest. Perhaps you wouldn't even need to re-read the Hobbit but you could simply base your story off of one or more of the characters, sort o like Turwaithiel did.

I'll deal with your muse, don't worry. Bribing-with-cookies never fails, hehe :P

Yes, I wrote my story completely off the tope of my head, and I have only read the hobbit once and it was two years ago! :P So you can do it, I know you can! :)

And your welcome, dear!

Thanks, both of you! By alternately threatening and bribing my muse, I came up with a couple of ideas. lol. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to enter!

Umm...demonic seven-year-olds happened (my previously-mentioned job is an assistant counselor at a children's daycamp). This is honestly the worst group of girls I've ever had, and I'm just completely drained of energy. Good news is, I'm done with them on Friday, and I have next week off. So, assuming the muse is cooperative, I should still be in. ;)

Good to see you again potr. :-)
Perhaps I'm starting to sounds so desperate that people post here again just to help keep my sanity intact... lol.

Aww don't let a group of seven-year-olds terrorise you. Take them to a dark room at night and read them a horror story and see how they'll all turn to you for protection when you walk back to the camp! muhahahah.

Anyway, looking forward to reading your entry. :angel:

*bites lip* I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to get an entry in on time. I leave for camp tomorrow, and I procrastinated. As a result I have, ah, today to write my story! lol So, if I don't get mine in by tomorrow, I won't get mine in. lol Just wanted to let you know!

Thanks for getting your entry in, Elenya. It's a great story. :-)

I'll be waiting for potr's entry and a reply from Aramel as to whether she can join or not and then I'll put up the poll.

Turwaithiel, should I put up the first entry you sent me or did you 'revise' it? ;-)

Alright, Turwaithiel, will do.

What a shame, Aramel. We would have loved to have you, but maybe next time. I'm hosting a Children of Hurin contest later on, perhaps you would like to participate there. :-)

I'm just waiting for potr's entry. I know she's busy with camp stuff and work but I guess we'll wait for her so we've got three entries for the poll. :angel:

I'll start the poll tomorrow I guess. I'm still hoping for potr's entry, if her writing muse - or the time devils - is going to be co-operative... :-)
