Prompt Post
Here are about 20 prompts that I liked, some from LOTR, some from movies or just quotes from people. Feel free to adapt the language to make things fit, most likely Christmas to Yule.
Also, feel free to suggest more prompts and I'll add them to the list. Claim one or more, and a single prompt can be claimed by more than one person. The only requirement is that it include Frodo or Elijah. Drabble is more suggestion than requirement for length; if you want to write more than 100 words, go for it. Use the prompt as it occurs to you, either literally or as a jumping off point.
Post by Christmas Eve. No worries if you're late. I think I'll put the comm on moderated status for now. I think that means people can post but I can control when they'll appear, is that right?
