What is your name? Nevvie Took

What is your quest? To write my very first piece of fanfiction fluff for the adorable monkeycrackmary. And try not to make it suck. *laughs*

I promised Mary I would write something for her, but I'm worried because I'm not terribly good at creative writing. I am exceedingly smug about my ability to write a great analytical essay (once I actually stop procrastinating and do it that is), but I'm just not very good at writing fiction. Which is so odd, because I'm such a creative, imaginative person.
I am thinking I might write something amusing about something from The Simarillion, perhaps Turin Turinbar. Yes, I know there's nothing funny about Turin, which is why I want to do it. *grins*
Or...oh, I don't know. Maybe Gil-Galad as a stroppy teenager or something. *giggles* Actually, that's not such a bad idea...;-)


Did a bit of shopping today, but didn't enjoy it one bit. I had to wait almost 20 minutes before someone would help me in the shoe shop, and when I was standing in the queue to buy some jeans, this horrible woman behind me kept trying to cut in front of me, pretending she couldn't see me (uhmm, hello, I'm too large to miss), and when it was finally my turn she started to walk in front of me again, and so I said a polite 'excuse me' , and she started screeching at me -- 'Don't you excuse me, how dare you say that to me! Excuse me, excuse me! I couldn't bloody see you bitch!' Can you believe that?? She just wouldn't shut up, trying to start a fight with me in the middle of the store, for absolutely no reason! How could she not see me, I was standing right in front of her for 10 minutes, and I'm huge! Sheeeeeeeeeeeeesh! I know I shouldn't have cared but I felt all wobbly afterwards, and was depressed the rest of the day. Stupid woman. *kicks her*


I might be meeting caersidi next weekend, which should be fun. Have to figure out how to get to Croyden though. *G*


I made a new friend last night, wheeeee! Say hello to the lovely mirabehn! :)


And look, she even made a quizzy! Is anyone surprised by my result? *grins impishly*




Which hobbit are you?
brought to you by Quizilla


You are: Pippin. High-spirited and occasionally (alright, frequently) a little irresponsible. It's taken you a while to grow up and learn to use the intelligence you were born with. Facing your fears, though, and those surprising depressive tendencies, you've emerged unscathed with an acute understanding of, and a great deal of compassion for many others. You've been able to do a lot of good with your quick intelligence and refusal to give up hope. And for some reason you're an awful lot taller than you were...


Yep, it's all true. Except of course I'm still bloody short. But thats okay, I embrace my hobbitness with pride. :)

you're going to write a fanfic, are you?? well, just make sure you follow these guidelines...

#1. main character has to be male (they always are...)
#2. the setting has to start out in some small, unknown place (except for the people who live there) never in a big city.
#3. the main character must leave this place, learn new skills and meet new people, be in the right place at the right and wrong times, and always ends up returning home the hero... :)

hope those help.. ;)

gosh I hate freaks like that. It also happens on the road when you know you're in line but this other driver tries to cut in front of you but you won't let him and he starts screaming for no reason, going psycho!
*hug*

I have the same problem with creativw writing. I think it's becuase I'm out of practice. I also don't have enough patience to see things through. I have so many beginnings and random ideas for stories hanging around in various notebooks but the ideas always seem to dry up. I know I have a good story locked up in my brain somewhere, I just can't find the key...

[lady-aquila.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'd love to see some LoTR fanfic by you! Gil-Galad as a stroppy teenager..! *LOL* Go for it! Me, I keep trying to draw even though I really can't; and after ten years of tracing Elfquest art I actually seem to have learned something! ;-P It's good to try to express your creativity in different forms/media!

That kind of unreasonable anger sounds like a sign of a bad conscience. They thought they'd get away with their selfish behaviour without challenge, but when you call them on it, they really can't defend their behaviour even to themselves, and so they get angry.

Maybe.

End of psychoanalysis session! ;-P

Seeing as you might be meeting me next weekend too I thought I better say Hello :-)

Added you to my friends list too, if that's okay?

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

No, go away! *grrr*

Hehehehe only teasing. *grins playfully* :D

Greetings ye curly haired hobbit lass. Yay! I've been lurking for a while and *you sound lovely*. I found you via my small Elly (mirabehn). I have added you as a friend - I hope you don't mind *bows low*.

I am Frodo's arse apparently (thanks for the quiz recommendation). I don't know whether this is good or bad but the description is probably accurate.

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Of course I don't mind! Hurrah! *twirls you around and spins playfully* :D

Frodo's arse eh? Sounds intriguing...would prefer if it was Pippin's arse o'course, but then, I'm obsessed. *lol*

I sound lovely? Why thank you! *blushes happily*
(Yes, I am rather amazing, aren't I. *smirk* ;-)

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Uhmmmm.....eeep? *scared* :-P

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Thank you! *squishes*

I think I'm going to need all the luck I can get. I am so rubbish at writing fiction. Why can't I just write an analysis of mythological themes in The Simarillion or something. *laughs*

Oh, gosh, I hate when I run into those "I'll just pretend I didn't see you so I can cut in front of you" types! AAAAAAA!!!!! It's so childish!

And I have a happy story to tell about this: once that happened to me in a store and the cashier saw that the woman had cut in front of me, so when the woman stepped up to the register, the cashier said "you're going to have to go back to the end of the line because that lady (me) was ahead of you." HA HA HA HA HA!!!

So cheer up: life's not always that unfair. Plus, I'm a firm believer that we reap what we sow, so your stupid woman will get her punishment somehow, I'm sure.
