symestreem has just left Hobbiton.
Well, when I first read Fellowship of the Ring, I thought it was boring and didn't finish it. This was way back when I was eleven or twelve.

Then when I read it again, and saw the movies, I created a horrible fanfic. The main character:
  • is Half-elven (in my defense, I created her before I knew about the prohibition. Which I still don't completely agree with).
  • is the daughter of Galadriel's AU second daughter
  • had both parents die tragically, killed by orcs
  • can talk to animals, to some extent
  • ends up with the Fellowship, but not as a Tenth Walker-- I think. Is that where the character leaves Rivendell with the Fellowship?

And the worst part?

I'm writing it down. And publishing it.

... It's not so heinous a crime as it sounds. I'm using it as a challenge on how not to write a Sue despite given potential.
