bullet The 12Days Challenge by Grey Wonderer Last Updated: 1/23/2005
Over the holidays, I took part in a challenge on a site called, 12Days. The challenge was to write one story a day for 12days dealing with the verses of the song, "Twelve Days of Christmas". Here are the stories. Each chapter is its own little story and each is based on one line of the song. This is filled with hobbits, the occasional elf, and even an Orc and NONE of these are my characters. Everything belongs to J.R.R. Tolkien. Most of the stories have nothing at all to do with Christmas
