As promised, here's the place to post links to your stories in the Tick-Tock Hobbit Universe, as described in "Cover to Cover" #278A. You can start at TS 24:10 and hear Jason's voicemail asking the question, and our responses that led to this idea, or you can just start at TS 40:20 and listen to the last 6 minutes of the show to hear the explanation of the ground rules.
The basic rules of this new fantasy universe:
- There must be Hobbit-like creatures
- There must be some magical-mechanical devices, not highly advanced
- An alien ship crash-lands on the world and changes everything
Write your stories in this universe, keep the stories PG-13, and only post the LINKS to the stories that you have on your own websites, not the stories themselves.
Let's see where this goes!
The Hobbits are in an never ending war, until a crashed ship threatens to alter the balance of power.
