Hobbit Writing Novels & Stories

And somewhere between explaining why The Hobbit was basically a comfort blanket and arguing that fairytales weren’t just for kids, the conversation turned more personal. “I used to… keep people at arm’s length,” I admitted, tracing the rim of my mug. “Still do, I guess. It’s easier that way. Less messy.” Hayden’s gaze softened. “Messy doesn’t always mean bad.” “It means vulnerable,” I countered. “And I’m not… great at that.” He leaned forward, resting his arms on the table. “You don’t have to be great at it. You just… let people in, little by little. On your terms.”

Almost. Then, a scream ripped through the idyllic scene. A high, keening wail that sliced through the quiet like shattered glass. I slowly abandoned The Hobbit. From the safety of the porch door, I cautiously looked past my yard. My parents' house was nestled on the corner of two quiet residential streets, usually peaceful, so the ear-piercing cry rang like a bell of despair.

Abigail's pov - I am immersed in my writing, my thoughts entwined with the intricate threads of a new plot. It sounds promising, at least in the confines of my own mind. If I'm content with it, perhaps my readers will be too. My fingers tap rhythmically on the keyboard, each keystroke a dance of creativity as I attempt to weave words into a captivating tapestry.

He pathetically begged for her to stay. “The name of the protagonist was Bilbo Baggins. He was short, face so comely and he does not like anything related to traveling. So he is indeed a home kind of a fellow. I mean all the people in Shire share the same perspective as him. They are just simple folks in that simple town.” He had read the book too and was pretty sure that it is not translated to any language rather than into Romanian dialect. How can this woman read those kind of books?

“Of course not. It’s just a house . . . my house, as you said.” “I can’t believe it. You’re Mr. Horror, and you don’t believe in ghosts? How is that even possible?” “Okay, Bias, I’m going to blow your mind with one hell of a revelation about writers and their stories. I’m pretty sure Lewis Carroll never fell down a rabbit hole into a magical Wonderland; it doesn’t seem likely that Anne Rice believes in vampires; and I highly doubt J.K. Rowling has met any real wizards. That’s what makes it fiction and not nonfiction.”

A father as terrifying as Baba, a mother as cowardly as Mama, and a sister as sweet as Cara. A tear slipped from the corner of her eyes as she wrote down the characters’ goals. She only wanted one thing, maybe two. Taking a deep breath, she tapped a key on her keyboard. This was her story, and she would write herself a happy ending. Hana wrote until her fingers went numb. But somehow, she couldn’t get herself to stop. It was so easy to picture every scene and change the settings from contemporary to fantasy. To watch Kyle, a dragon rider in her story, burn down the men who tried to harm her with his dragon. She named it K.

Your choice, princess. I didn't answer. I couldn't. My fingers wouldn't work right. I just sat there in that hard plastic chair with my notebook open to a page I had been writing on a minute ago, before the world changed, and I read what I'd written. Something about Hobbes. Something about the state of nature. My handwriting looked like a stranger's. I tried to think. I tried so hard to think.

He had one of those moments, a burst of creativity, and the dialogue practically spilled from him. Lucas was writing a novel, a fantasy epic. It'd been his dream, a dream he also shared with his best friend, Bobby. The two had always talked about getting a degree in cinema studies and try making it as screenwriters. Ardent fans of the fantasy genre, they'd envisioned themselves writing a masterpiece à la Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones.
