I don't like Christopher (Gollum,'It's mine,my Precious') Tolkien, and his stagnating stance. I like Orcs, I am building a New Dark Tower, I have five bricks so far, any donations welcome.............

Actually, my worst crime of all is:

...I don't really like the Elves.

Well in that case - if the gloves are off - I really dislike a lot about "The Hobbit" .. I know it was necessary for the existence of LOTR but once LOTR was written I wish that every copy of The Hobbit had disappeared so that a proper grown up version (as glimpsed in the LOTR appendices and unfinished tales) could replace it .... Tralalally gone for ever ...Yesssssssssssssss

And I find writing for elves in RPGs beyond me at the moment, especially the insane bard type that I have had to adopt. He seems the ultimate anti-elf.

Well, maybe I should reserve that honor (?) for Naiore, the other adopted elf in The Lingering Darkness!

I knew you would crack under pressure sooner or later.

Now, just walk into the cell and you might get off easy. Don't make this hard for yourselves and the good boys in blue.

I got to follow right behind Esty, and am guilty of parodiness. My worst one (or to me the one I actually like the most) was Sam's and his george foreman grill...oh boy

.

I guess you could also convict me of high treason too. I was kind of glad when Jackson made Helm's Deep the primary climax of TTT, instead of suggesting what Tolkien did in Letter 210 in that the Ents are the more important and if time is necessary Helm's Deep should be cut.

I feel someone has stolen some of my stolen work, it is actually Stan Gamble and his Gorge Fourmen grill................................

Waaaaay back in the day, I wrote about half of a Legomance, the original sin of LotR fanfiction. To my credit, however...
1. It wasn't a Tenth Walker story, as she met up with the Fellowship in Lothlorien,
2. It wasn't an "OMG sad abused girl falls into Middle-earth SQUEEEEEEEEE" sort of story, and
3. The story was never posted anywhere and has since been deleted from my computer.
