The Hobbits of The Lord of The Rings
I had a request for this week's geeky moment from a faithful reader. I mentioned on my first geeky post that I had sent in a cartoon to a magazine and had it published as part of a contest. Does the fact that I had to think up and write the words on the cartoon and the fact that it was, in fact, published, mean that I am a published writer? Interesting thought...hmmm. Anyhow, the cartoon was published in the June-July 2009 Number 9 issue of The Lord of the Rings Fan Club Official Movie Magazine. It had Dominic Monaghan as Meriadoc Brandybuck (Merry) on the cover. Which of course is awesome as he was one of my favorite characters in the book. Hobbits rule! (Sorry. Had to say that.) So after much digging, I finally found my digital copy of the cartoon. It's a good thing I used to back up my work so well. Sadly, I didn't label my disks nearly as efficiently. The magazine titled my cartoon "Second Breakfast" and it won for being, "LOL Funny". I was proud as a peacock. Did I mention I won a prize? Yep. I signed poster version of Bill Amend's Fox Trot Lord of the Rings cartoon. It. Was. Awesome.
