The Barrow-Wight: I've been on the books forum for quite a while already! I just signed up recently, though. This forum generated the "destruction and rebirth" theme idea. I've skimmed over the Middle-earth FAQ, but I think I'll probably go through and read it a little better. And I've definitely browsed the Articles section--that's where I got the "life and death" idea. Thanks, though. I'm planning on going through the FAQ and others shortly--I might read the articles again, in case I missed something. However, last time I read them, I noticed quite a few that I really didn't agree with, and I'm kind of hesitant to write about something I disagree about, because IMO, it will be harder to find quotes and things to support something I disagree on. However, now that I think about it, I could probably just take the OPPOSITE of what I don't agree with and write on it. ^_^
The Knight of Gondor: I had considered the spiritual themes of ME--that's probably one of the ones I hear most about. However, I was a little reluctant to write about that one, because I'm not very knowledgeable about religious texts and tenets (I don't attend church). That would make it a little more difficult to come up with ideas along those lines. However, I will be keeping the spiritual themes in mind (I even wrote it down) in case I DO happen to stumble across something I can use. Thanks!
