Ghetto..*sighs* I don't think i've ever had so many nicknames before..but it's all good though.
I have my "Binky" more correctly called hubby. (Even though he asked what I was doing and I told him and he was like..Okay I'm gonna go watch TV.)
And No..IT'S MINE.
Just show me where the Hobbit called Merry Brandybuck is and no one gets hurt. Throw an elf in there for good measure.

Rhaps,
I guess so....LOL
I was just laughing at all the variances she came up with. Thank goodness it is Friday. I don't think I could stand another day of work..unless they paid time and a half. Or gave me some nice Elvish wine. Wink

Rhaps,
My OC is having race issues..Actually I am. I can't decide whether he should be man or elf or halfelf. I am leaning towards the last one. But yes, the plot bunnies have stirred. It's sad..three weeks and no writing but the character is still there bugging me. I think what's getting me down is the amount of info I think I need to know/have/learn before I write.
Other than that, the day is going well. I wonder what we're having for dinner. Maybe Pizza.

if you are worried about the amount of research that needs doing, I suggest picking one race. I mean trying to understand the nuances of two races could be a daunting task! Then after you have a good handle on that character, go have fun exploring the other race for another character and then have them interact. My two cents!

At some point you will have to do like the rest of us and simply post a story. Get some feedback and learn more. and yeah there are at least 10 + HoME (History of Middle Earth) books out there plus collections, histories and commentaries. There is no way you can learn everything. Check the forums, some of the most knowledgeable here post as many questions as answeres. And therein lies the fun!

Well spoken, Ya. Thanks for the advice. At least I have time to sit and think about what I want to do with the story, until I get home and it's "Oh you're home..what's for dinner?"
Not that I mind, cause Fridays we usually order Pizza or go out.
Very Happy
At least they aren't like Pippin and want 2nd breakfasts and elevensies and whatever else meals that Hobbitses have.
(but if Mr. Brandybuck came to my house..I would not refuse to cook for him. *grin* What is it about that Hobbit? )

Well when you decided on pizza, just take up upon that offer I gave you in a PM and we'll get it sorted.
