Okay, okay, okay....now this is just a plot bunny one with very interesting (frightening for some) consequences. What if there was a 'fic' written for Lord of the Rings based on the key chapters of the book in poetry? In other words, Bilbo's Long Expected Party would be put into verse and the events that happened akin to that of a song/sonnet, etc.
Also, would it be possible to post such an endeavor upon the gracious webpages that is OSA?

Hey SecretKeeper,
That sounds like quite a challenge you've got for yourself there!
I don't see why it shouldn't be posted at OSA so long as you put it in the Bombadil's Corner section, as I think that is where all poetry stuff is supposed to go.
If you do decide to do it let me know as I'd be quite interedted to read it.

Sounds good. The book is bloody long, so I guess we can divide this massive task or should we do it together?
Set up a system, and I'm all good.

No one seems to like the collaborative forum. But we'll see...maybe I should I post this as a challenge in the challenge section would make an interesting read.

| If you have a challenge, don't post it on a thread; we're less likely to see it. PM me or Maram68 or go enter it directly in the challenge section in the bottom left of the Main Page. Wouldn't want it to get lost in forum chatter. |

| I believe it would be entirely possible. I did something like it -- though on a far smaller scale. I have a poem that traces, vaguely, the progression of the quest from Merry's point of view in terms of which rivers marked major events. But even THAT was difficult and took ages. I'd love to see someone try something more intense. |
