Nor by Jerusalem

Thanks to people that replied to my informal poll about the Advent calendar, both publicly and privately. It seems people want me to write (no surprise there!). My muse has been a bit recalcitrant lately, but I would like to try to coax her to cooperate.

So, could I have writing prompts please? I will probably need 8-12 decent prompts that can be addressed in a thousand words or less. You should give me characters you'd like me to use, along with either a short theme (<7 words) or else an inspirational quote you'd like me to use as inspiration. No promises I'll be able to come up with any fic, but I'd like to try!

Btw, I am itching to get back into Tolkien-verse, and would love to attempt characters off the beaten track (so Silmarillion/Unfinished Tales/Appendices preferred). However I'll gladly consider characters from any of the 'verses you see me discuss. The worst I can do is say no... :-)

I put in my order the other day to have an Arthur C. Clarke short story put on eReserve for my class. This has me happy beyond all explaining. Not quite sure why, but I'm enjoying the smiles. For the interested, we're reading "The Star," which is available online here.

Also: I can has headphones. Navy blue + silver Skull Candy lowriders - good midrange models that handle bass a lot better than I was expecting, and with a kind of cushion on the top so my hair doesn't get all tangled, and a cord just the right link. Not professional-grade, but much more comfortable and better sound quality than my usual earbuds. I've been killing time and listening to music. And it's not after Thanksgiving yet, so I'm allowed to treat myself.

So this is just to say: Ray Charles, Solomon Burke, Fatboy Slim, Benny Goodman, The Doors, Joe Crocker, and most especially Jimi Hendrix - those cats could play!
