How on earth can a 15 year old write something as terrible as that? I'm only 16, but I like to think that I could do a *little* better... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] It really makes you think though. How can someone be genuinley that awful?
Thanks for the PM Kalimac (I'd have replied, but your inbox was full). It helped clear things up, and now I know for sure that my characters not a Mary Sue. Lily, Boromir still dies (poo!) and I'd stay that she's pretty off-stage. She stays in Minas Tirith when Boromir goes off on his journey.
