If you could be tranported into the story of The Hobbit, which character would you want to be?
Include in your answer why? Your answer must be written in complete sentences. A minimum of five sentences is requried.
Here is an example of an excellent answer shared as a comment:
turtlemom3 (http://turtlemom.wordpress.com/) has left a new comment on your post "Exploring J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit Writing Prom...":
I'd like to be an elf. Elves are much more magical than any race except, perhaps, wizards. Elven women are incredibly beautiful - tall and slender - the way I'd like to be. Elves are slightly suspicious of the other races, but willing to allow their suspicion abate once they have spent time with members of another race. The Elves of Rivendell live in a gorgeous palace-like dwelling. The Woodland Elves live in Mirk-wood. They are probably the most suspicious. But I like the Elves of Lothlórien the best. Their homes in the tops of trees are beautiful. They sing mystical songs that put human music to shame. Yes, I'd like to be an Elf!

Writing Prompt for Sunday, August 4, 2012
Check out Laurie Hale Anderson's Blog Post and try her suggested writing prompt on her Goodreads' Blog!
Excerpt from Laurie's Prompt on Goodreads:
Today’s Prompt: Quickly write a paragraph about what your days were like in second grade (around age 7). Then choose a fairy tale from this list. Pull one of the elements from the fairy tale and write about who you would have reacted if it showed up in your life when you were in second grade. For example, what if your new babysitter had been Cinderella? Or the giant from Jack in the Beanstalk?
NOTE: You can only use the minutes you are actually writing towards your goal of fifteen minutes. Time spent reading or thinking doesn't count.
ANOTHER NOTE: Loosen up! Have fun! Start Scribbling!

Another Creative Outlet for Writers, Artist, etc.
For all you artsy left-brained folks out there in the blogosphere, here is another outlet for your creativity. Check out Creative Every Day...
This weekly check-in post is a place for Creative Every Day Challenge participants to share their creative activities.
Join in the Challenge: You can now sign-up for the 2012 Challenge here!
Ways to share: Once you've signed up, you can leave a comment on this post and/or use the "Mr. Linky" widget below to link to a blog post(s) about your creative activities during the days of 7/23/12 - 7/29/12.
The widget below is an optional method of sharing your creativity that makes it easier for others to check out what you're up to. You can use it to link to a blog post (or posts) or flickr image during the week listed. Or if you have a bunch of posts and don't want to link to all of them, you can link to your main blog page once. Do it in a way that makes sense and is fun for you! If you're unsure about how to use the widget, check out the "How to use the Mr. Linky widget" section on the Creative Every Day Challenge page. (If you're reading this in a RSS reader or email subscription, you will not see the "Mr. Linky widget", so click on over to theblog to use it.) If the Mr. Linky widget is missing from this blog post, it's probably a problem with their server and it will come back as soon as it's fixed. You can always leave your link in the comments.
You can also take advantage of the great CED flickr group to post your images and see what others are up to. If you're on Twitter, you can use the hashtag #CED2012!
Theme: The (totally optional) theme for July is Round, which you can read more here.
Happy Creating!
There are patterns which emerge in one's life, circling and returning anew, an endless variation of a theme ― Jacqueline Carey
