Lindale - thanks for the interest! It will definitely still be up and running in December - in fact, I'm picking up so little enthusiasm in general for this that you can expect it to be around at least until spring or summer of next year...really whenever it picks up and I start getting a lot of responses I'll decide an end date. Right now...there is none in sight!
But rest assured, even if I never get a lot of essays, I will definitely create a space via the web where I compile all of the essays received. Either way, people who are interested with see these.
Gordis - I knew I forgot an important character! Forgive me, precious. If you wish to join in, feel free to write about the Witch-King under "Other"!
