I didn’t proofread this. So. Please forgive me.
Category: Fan Fiction
This bit of writing was inspired by another sister. We were driving to work one morning when we got to talking about things like… you know… Narnia. 😉
Me plotting my next Narnia post
Well, I’ve done it. I’ve gone and written a piece of fan fiction based on one of my favorite nonexistent places. The Shire. This little bit of writing was inspired by another writing prompt from a dear sister. She asked me to write about “what I thought was going on in the Shire between the time that the Black Riders came through and the time that Saruman decided to create his headquarters there.”
That is actually quite a bit of time to cover in one small snippet… and so you might find another piece pop on my blog at a later date set in a similar time, just covering different events.
But for now, here it goes! I’m risking my reputation by tampering with Tolkien’s world. But at least I had a bit of fun while doing it.
P. S. I’ve never seen the movies… so be gracious… 😉
My dear sister sent me a writing prompt a few weeks ago with the suggestion that I write a short piece containing only dialogue. No narrating, no ‘he said’ or ‘she said’ tags. Just dialogue.
I was at a loss on how to do this at first, but then an inspiration hit. More Narnia fanfiction… 🙂 If you’ve never read “The Horse and His Boy”, this short little snippet might be confusing. But if you’ve read the book… then sit back and attempt to enjoy my imaginings.
It was a warm summer night with breezes smelling of oak leaves and apples. Humple the faun lay on his back, partially under a giant apple tree, and gazed at the stars dancing above his head. On this particular night, the sight was breathtaking. He could see the bright points of light moving in and out, glinting and shimmering as they weaved around one another. Never before had the dance of the stars been visible to the wood creatures.
This little bit of imagining was brought about by a friend casually saying… “You should try fanfiction!” And this was a small attempt at making a certain event come alive a little more. If you are a fan of this certain series you will understand the connection. 🙂
