also, thanks to TORN I get to add another book to my CV [In reply to] Can't Post

In 2003 I sent in an essay on how LOTR is the archetypal heroic quest story to TORN's "Greenbooks" section. It was just something I did for fun. I got a "Mithril Award" commendation for it, which was nice. And that was it, I thought. But yesterday I got contacted by a college professor who is putting together a textbook on mythology that includes "modern myths," asking permission to include my essay.

So any of you who want to know how to get published, submit stuff to online venues - you never know who might see it and what might come of it!

Well done, Annael! // [In reply to] Can't Post

 

Where now the horse and the rider? Where is the horn that was blowing?
Where is the helm and the hauberk, and the bright hair flowing?
Where is the hand on the harpstring, and the red fire glowing?
Where is the spring and the harvest and the tall corn growing?
They have passed like rain on the mountain, like a wind in the meadow;
The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow....

Wow - that's wonderful! [In reply to] Can't Post

Congratulations! I have seen similar advice given to aspiring actors - never turn down an opportunity for good work, even if you don't get paid. You just never know who will see that work one day.

Great news, Annael!

I met a Balrog on the stair.
He had some wings that weren't there.
They weren't there again today.
I wish he would just fly away.
