Here is the place to tell us about your daily success (or the lack of it)!
May the magic be with us all!

I haven't commented in the past days but I'm writing more or less regularly at the moment!! Which is a huge sucess after months of writer's block!

I was on a roll! I have done around 730 word and I think it finishes the chapter — although I will only be sure when I read it back in the morning.

This is towards the end of the chapter. The exploration of the new lands that the Valar have opened up for the Wood elves is continuing;


“I feel that this is a place where my Lord Adar would be happy,” he said.

Ithilienne recognised that this was the Prince of Eryn Lasgalen speaking of The King, not just Legolas speaking of his father.

“And this land, and these trees, would welcome him joyously. I feel as if they welcome me as his son, rather than as their new lord.”

Well that was new. He had never said anything like that before.

“There is still so much we have not seen, but this would be the right place for my Lord Adar to build his new home I think, and others can explore further as the craving to go touches them.

“For myself and my own folk, the land we passed through to reach this point calls me back, and I think we should begin there. Especially as Gimli tells me there are metal deposits close by so that we would not need to rely on the Noldorin miners."

Two writing exercises — about 450 words in all — that turned into tiny stories so I may be able to brush them up into proper ficlets.

Also spent time workshopping some of the exercises from the other students, which is probably good for me :)

Original. If possible, I'll brush them up for little stories to go in competitons. I want to do more of that as a hobby on its own, for the practice... :)

Wrote about 200 words tonight on my original work. I'll be busy the next two days but I'm determined to finish out the month with new words every day!
