And it's very good writing practise too.
Some issues have put a cramp on my writing for a while, but I'm hoping to restart and have something up during the weekend.

Yay! An Earniel post!

Argh! Serves me right for not checking the spelling...
But I doubt Halweg is much of the hugging sort.

Cute spelling error!
Sorry I've dropped the ball here, guys, but I had no idea this foot surgery would be so painful and difficult to recover from.

It's all right. We're still moving at reasonable pace for this type of role-play. Neither recovery from surgery or good writing can be rushed, and when it comes down to it, it's the health matters that have to take precedence.

thanks for your patience - I'm even devoid of ideas right now, which usually isn't the case. The pain just kind of fills my head

Earniel's online - any progress on your idea, Froggie?

I've got a draft for the start of the scene which I think is pretty okay, but LLL and off-computer activities have taken up most of my time. I was aiming to send you something after the weekend.

Perhaps Rameldir should get a letter from his friend Calimon soon, saying that it's OK for them to come ...
Perhaps Calimon feels a bit awed about receiving the Hero of the Balrog-slaying? Or slightly worried as well. They did not know each other from the Crossing of the Ice. Calimon didn't cross the Ice - he went on Curufin's ship ...

That could definitely be an interesting angle to explore once they meet Calimon in Lothlorien.
R*an, the draft is going to take a little longer, Tuesday probably. I got drafted into helping in my sister's garden all day.

We should definitely explore that, but let's hold off on getting a return letter until the characters on the road are a bit closer to Rivendell, since right now it would mean jumping ahead of them by about a month.

You're right, he's only just sent off his own. And he said in his letter that they wouldn't be leaving for a while anyway. So no rush. Rameldir could look back at the first session of his new training instead ... which will need another PM when I've made a draft ...

Take all the time you need to draft it. I'll be off in finals land for the next week and it's bad enough that I'll be trying to write my faeries, much Tolkien's elves, before I've got the Satyricon out of my system.

Nice post, Earniel - you really got the "feel of the land" in it - something that Tolkien did very well (and I don't do well ). I could really see and feel the land around them, and hear the breeze in the trees.
OK, let's work on the next part ... (Earniel thought up an interesting idea ... )

Thank you, Rìan. Did you get my last mail about that problem you mentioned?
