Oh, good heavens, I can't believe I forgot.

New Diary of a Mountie entry up.

I must note that the entry is the second to last remaining that takes place during the time of our actual League of Extraordinary Gentlemen RPG. We had two game sessions, and I'm finally at the end of #2. I'm going to start asking the other players if we want to get this back into happening as a play-by-email, or what- but there's only one Diary entry left of game-time material right now.

Because I just couldn't leave well enough alone,

this popped up in a discussion on deleterius.

The Quenta Silmarillion, summarized in fewer than three hundred fifty words.
