Okay, yeesh! Considering the OT forums has people salivating over J. R. R. Tolkein's LOTR, I thought it was a safe pick. How about picking a very well known book (or play) and writing a blurb for it, as practice for summarizing and hyping your own work? Can we agree on Monday, 19 August for the deadline? I'll post a different writing exercise next week, so people have time to work on each one, but if they don't like on, they don't have to wait long to participate on the next one. Sound fair and happy? ;-)
