Excellent! Competition is always amusing, and at the very least, it's a way for writers to get an extra bump of exposure and for readers to get a nice little package tied up in a bow. Wink

..::August Theme ~ But You're a Girl! The Tolkien Feminine Twist::..

Pick one of these three options,

1) write a tale of the Fellowship but make one of the existing members of the fellowship a female (not a 10th walker, but replace one of the actual fellowship members)

2) write a tale of the Sons of Feanor with the twist that there are SIX sons and ONE daughter

3) Pick another important male canon character and make them a female instead of a male - Eomer, Bilbo, Gloin, Fingon, Fingolfin, Beleg, Smaug, etc etc.


The theme for August is 'But You're a Girl! The Tolkien Femine Twist'. In this male dominated tale, I thought it would be fun to mix it up a bit. *evil grin*

It also does not have to be based on documented events but it will need to be based on an actual character in the books as the base character to be changed to a female. Each writer has until August 31st to turn in the story to alec_votecoordinator@yahoo.com.

Note - I have changed the email address to the same address as voting due to some confusion of where to send things. SEND ALL STORIES AND VOTES TO alec_votecoordinator@yahoo.com.

Please include the proper formatting for LJ. If you have any questions about how to do that, feel free to ask.


Good luck and happy writing!
