i see sounds like fun..

WeirdRaptor · **Reply #301 on:** February 21, 2011, 10:03:55 PM

Yeah... my readers tend to put Ron, my character, through the wringer a lot.

Nick22 · **Reply #302 on:** February 21, 2011, 10:09:21 PM

yeah I bet. do some try to mislead you intentionally?

WeirdRaptor · **Reply #303 on:** February 21, 2011, 11:50:22 PM

Nah, its just that the Big Bad is a very powerful and terrible abomination of all the natural laws. Think small scale Cthulhu.

I don't think I could begin to describe what The Slender Man is here. TVTropes has a very comprehensive article on the matter, though.

so its some kind of evil personified. :blink:

Though, there is the alternate theory that he's just on a completely different wavelength than us humans. For one thing, masks confuse him.

Sounds unusual, or spooky even.

Hey, guys. Listen. It's been difficult for me to admit, but... Somehow, back in last year, some of my progress into Fellowship got erased. I'm still not sure how. A part of the reason that this is taking a while that I've been hesitant to speak is that I have to do it over again. It's not your reaction I was afarid of. I just don't want to talk about it. What I had was my best yet, and I now I have to try to react it.

But it's coming. I do work on this everyday. The updates are coming and this year, I am going to finish this monster of a paper, that Finnish production of The Lord of the Rings, included.

Well you did post the sections that were lost on here riight? So all you'd have to do is print of the sections that already posted. or is this sections that you had completed but hadn't posted..

WeirdRaptor · **Reply #309 on:** February 22, 2011, 03:40:41 PM

Oh yeah, I've taken care in replacing what I lost that's already out on the web, but I also lost stuff further along. I've since then put this paper on a new flashdrive as well. The parts covering what happens in Bree, though, I have to rewrite from scratch, and I managed to get all the way to the hobbits and Aragorn on the road

Nick22 · **Reply #310 on:** February 22, 2011, 03:44:19 PM

oh i see..yeah that stinks..

Kor · **Reply #311 on:** February 23, 2011, 01:43:02 AM

That does sound horrible. I hope it doesn't happen again.

Nick22 · **Reply #312 on:** February 23, 2011, 01:52:08 AM

Well take your time and try and reconstruct what you wrote down as best you can.

Kor · **Reply #313 on:** February 23, 2011, 02:03:34 AM

yes, diffidently no hurry.

WeirdRaptor · **Reply #314 on:** February 24, 2011, 03:47:25 AM

I will. I'm trying to let it flow naturally as I did before. Though I do remember almost word for word my description of the overacting the guy who plays Butterbur did.

Kor · **Reply #315 on:** February 24, 2011, 12:46:21 PM

That sounds great, I hope it goes well for you.

Nick22 · **Reply #316 on:** February 24, 2011, 01:08:40 PM

yueah talkking about chewing the scenery..

WeirdRaptor · **Reply #317 on:** February 25, 2011, 10:55:11 PM

I swear every inch of that man's face contorted to their capacity... All in just the scene where he greets the hobbits and tells them Gandalf's not been around in six months.

Nick22 · **Reply #318 on:** February 25, 2011, 10:58:00 PM

yep. trying to squeeze everything out of his brief role..it happens sometimes

WeirdRaptor · **Reply #319 on:** March 05, 2011, 03:07:14 AM

Sorry to update without...updating again, but I'm feeling the flow again. I'm hitting the stride once more. I've taking a while because while I've had the opportunity, I just haven't been feeling it until now, so to speak. It's coming, I think I'm back to where I can do steady work on it again.
