I shall definitely have to read it soon...Ooh, cool. I shall definitely have to read it sooner rather than later.<br /><br />Yeah. But even if they're centuries old, it would still freak people out, to have people wandering around claiming to be someone who's supposed to be dead.<br /><br />Good wonderings. I'd particularly like to know the answer to the first one . . . though the last one would be super cool. :D<br /><br />Thanks!

It's really good. As is the LOTR sequel that he started as well...<br /><br />Anyway. Number 3... I wondered that a lot, too. Like... how old were these people, or rather, how long were they dead? Because if they were centuries old it'd be really different than Grandpa walking into the house after you buried him. <br /><br />Things I've wondered... why do the words flow sometimes and other times they don't? Why does music make people cry? What if Middle-earth was actually real?<br /><br />This was a fun post. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6336480024326420194.post-36670527076217006012016-11-19T19:02:53.177-05:002016-11-19T19:02:53.177-05:00#3 drives me a little wild sometimes.

That's simultaneously awesome and aggravating! <br /><br />These are all good questions. I love a good wandering wondering. Sometimes I just end up with more questions, but sometimes I get story ideas out of it! <br /><br /> Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08760994961683034493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6336480024326420194.post-36984078768574408602016-11-19T18:06:24.609-05:002016-11-19T18:06:24.609-05:00Thanks! And I don't doubt it.
Exactly- gettin...Thanks! And I don't doubt it.<br /><br />Exactly- getting to lead it definitely doesn't make sense. (Unless everyone just looks at them because they started it? Which could be sort of understandable?) But yeah. Thanks for giving your thoughts!<br /><br />Thank you!Sarah Penningtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06377945004067760298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6336480024326420194.post-33846311678880983712016-11-19T18:04:59.771-05:002016-11-19T18:04:59.771-05:00Huh.

Thanks for suggesting it!<br /><br />And sorry; that stinks. :P I hope you can find a way to actually get some rest soon!Sarah Penningtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06377945004067760298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6336480024326420194.post-2125737097412536552016-11-19T16:29:35.599-05:002016-11-19T16:29:35.599-05:00These are really good questons, and ones I've ...These are really good questons, and ones I've often wondered myself. Actually, a good portion of both my time and my novels are filled with "why" and "what if" questions. :)<br /><br />I agree with Kayla Marie that the teenagers and rebellion thing makes sense- what doesn't make sense is that they get to lead it all the way through, since their inexperience alone would make that extraordinarily difficult. And actually, when I think of it, 20-25-year-olds seem more likely to start (and stand a chance of winning) rebellions and revolutions. But teenagers seem to be the trend anyway.<br /><br />I really liked your question about what happened to the people who were brought back from the dead after Jesus's resurrection. That's something I've always wondered. :)Emmarayn Reddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15906735934810971194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6336480024326420194.post-50134507379185205062016-11-19T13:13:40.931-05:002016-11-19T13:13:40.931-05:00I think the whole "teenagers starting a rebel...I think the whole "teenagers starting a rebellion" makes sense. I mean, teenagers tend (and I'm making a generalization here) to be kind of whiny/complaining which can translate into seeing what's wrong with their world in a way adults/older people can't because they've lived in it for longer and so gotten used to it, you know? In a good world, we (yes, I am a teenager - so at least I'm not bashing a demographic I'm not apart of myself, right?) complain about things that don't matter too much. Not having enough freedom, our parents, our annoying younger siblings, etc. But in a messed up world, teenagers are the ones who look at the world differently and see what others are blind to. What I'm trying to say is - when you enter your teen/young adult years, you eyes ARE opened to a lot of things you may have been very naive about before. So. That's my stab at it!<br /><br />Also I'm aaaaalways "too tired to sleep." Very annoying!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
