Even though 750 words has buggy javascript after I hit the 750 word goal, it's worked out pretty good for me so far. I might actually get some of my long story ideas written if I can keep it up.
Look what I got done today -- a bit of Sam's tale of ( the six months I spent in Jotunheim in the hall of the werewolf-king, playing security blanket to a traumatized archangel )
I'm trying to come up with names for the Jotuns that don't reference Odin (hard) or Thor (very hard), because the Jotuns are basically the same kind of beings as the Aesir and the Vanir, as they keep intermarrying. And it doesn't make sense that the Jotuns would venerate beings that are that much like themselves...
The Viking Answer Lady has nice lists of attested names with meanings, and I've decided that the Jotuns are more likely to reference Iron, Frost, Ice, and Snow in their names -- and the Wolves are going to references the Sun and the Moon especially often.
