The August Challenge: Nonfiction

The August Challenge

Because people may want extra time to think about this, we are announcing the August challenge early.

The August Challenge will once again have the theme "Nonfiction." You will not receive an element for this challenge; rather, we encourage all members to submit essays, research articles, and other nonfictional works related to Tolkien's legendarium.

The August challenge entries will be due Tuesday, August 14 and will be revealed on Thursday, August 16.

Please tag your essay "non-fiction" and " '12 august". Use the following special header for your nonfiction entry: Put "Nonfiction" as the theme, and as "type" indicate whether it is an essay, research, tutorial or other type of nonfiction. Make sure to put the name of your piece and your name in the subject line (e.g. "Sindarin Verbs by Scholar Sue").

<b>Author:</b> <b>Title:</b> <b>Rating:</b> <b>Theme:</b> <b>Subject:</b> <b>Type:</b> <b>Author's Notes:</b> <b>Word Count:</b> <lj-cut>

To indicate your participation, please leave a comment to this post, or you can email the mods at aelfwina@gmail.com, virginia_lee_redcat@yahoo.com, or celeritassagittae@gmail.com.

I hope we'll have lots of participants for our August challenge!

I think I can play in this sandbox, but if I don't submit, it's because I'm too deeply involved in the research for my own O-fic for NaNoWriMo. That said, I'd like to look into the hidden cities of Middle Earth - A Comparison of Gondolin and Imladris.

I think I can play too - we shall see!

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Is it too late to say I may possibly participate in this? I have an essay I've written that I want to try to spruce up and submit for this challenge, if I get time to write in the midst of traveling!

It's never too late for our challenges! Seriously, we'd love to have it!
