The Lingering Darkness Planning/Discussion Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

So much for determination! Honestly, I DO intend to wrap this up, I promise. Just when exactly remains the question. I've got this long end bit written, but still need to find the end of the end (and do some heavy pruning of the schmaltz that is creeping in)! Unfortunately, I have some major stuff going on that is consuming all my "playtime" and brain cells. I hope to put that particular business behind me in the next week or two, and will then have more time at my disposal. Happiness!

Do not lose hope, the end is near.

Hurrah! Hurrah! The promised post is up. And that should wind it up, unless Nerindel stops by to let us know what becomes of Amandur and Lespheria's situation. Something I would love to know, but suppose can be added in on the Fanfic side.

Thanks again to everybody, for making this such an interesting story to work on, and to Pio for her enduring patience throughout! It has been a pleasure working with everyone.

Great closing posts, Hilde! I knew you would do a wonderful job of it.

It was pleasure working on LD! Hopefully, though, the next one won't run quite so long, eh?

I will miss all of these characters very much -- they feel almost like old friends.

Thanks, Pio, for your incredible patience and enthusiasm.

Hilde Bracegirdle · 03-15-2008, 09:11 AM

Thanks very much, Eala. And do hope that in the next year or so things lighten up go that we can write together again. Perhaps a reunion story?

Gilly becomes a hobbit bounty hunter and Carl enlists Benia's aid to reform her friend? Eh...well...hmm.

But I was wondering, Pio.... Since the front page of barrowdowns.com leads to the forums now, I'm not sure how to get to the Fan Fiction area anymore. Is it still around...somewhere?

In a way, I'm so sorry to see this tale draw to an end.

On the other hand, what a glorious read it's been!!!! I really do hope you two might decide to honor us with another tale at some time.

By the way - I tried the links I have for the Fan Fic site but they won't work. So, I PM'd BW & will let you know what he has to say.

hee-hee ...Gilly becomes a bounty hunter... I love it!

And, again, thanks very much, Pio!!!

I hope to finish school (someday) and start writing again. I miss this place and would love to get going with another good tale! Oh, well. Hopefully that won't be too far down the road.

The errand rider from Gondor dismounted quickly and strode purposefully into the thread. He unfurled a parchment and nailed it to one of the walls:

***

Come one, come all, you denizens here and in far lands!!
All those who enjoy the reading of a good tale and the playing out of one.

A new name has been added to the list of storytellers in Gondor:

~*~ littlemanpoet ~*~

Come and give your congratulations to this wonderful wordsmith!

~*~ Free drinks/ free food/ & plenty of good company ~*~

***

Come to The Seventh Star Inn in Gondor and lift a glass to littlemanpoet.!!!
