Also known as St. Andrew's Day, at least over here... and our session is coming to an end.

So, ladies and gents, let's share and tell each other what this November pico was like for each and every one of us!

See you all (hopefully) in March. May the magic be with us all!

I didn't manage to finish the second chapter that I had planned — but during the month I did write part 2 of Conversations with Dead People, and am quite a long way through the chapter of Transmitting. Yesterday was so hectic I got nothing written at all — but it was actually a major success because I suddenly realised what the answer was to something that has been a puzzle/problem to me for a long time, and today I have time put aside to write it into the story :)

For anyone interested in Tolkien related things, I have been puzzled about what to do about Oropher — if he leaves Mandos does he again become the King of the Silvan-Sindar kingdom, and where would that leave Thranduil? And now I have a solution which actually fits into the place where I am!

Interesting. I'd like to see your solution. Most writers seem to forget about Oropher completely.

You did well during pico, and to have a plot knot clarify itself is the best feeling! That's a successful month :)

Thank you!

Isn't that just the best feeling, when you suddenly realize the answer to something that's been a puzzle for a long time!

Congrats on all your accomplishments this Pico!

Thank you. And I have now written the entire chapter — I sat this afternoon and wrote about 1,100 words! My beta has cast an eye over it, but we need to go through it more carefully as I typed it quite quickly and just realised that the odd thing like 'unknow' instead of 'unknown' have crept past the first read through!

That is a fantastic lot of work, and yay for finishing the chapter!
